Abstract

The invention provides a silicon-based annular multi-waveband detector and a manufacturing method thereof. The silicon-based annular multi-waveband detector sequentially comprises a lower electrode 8,a P- silicon substrate 1, an N+ silicon layer 2 with a forbidden band width of Eg1, an N+ nitride layer 3, an i- nitride layer 4, a P+ nitride layer 5 with a forbidden band width of Eg2 and an upperelectrode 6 from bottom to top, wherein the upper electrode 6 is located at the end of the P+ nitride layer 5, a middle electrode 7 is located at the position, close to the end, of the N+ silicon layer 2 and covers part of the end of the N+ nitride layer 3, and the middle electrode 7 and the upper electrode 6 are of an annular structure. According to the invention, a p-i-n junction diode is used for realizing detection of a solar blind ultraviolet band, and a p- silicon substrate and an N+ silicon substrate are used for forming a pn junction to achieve detection of a visible light band, so that the effect that a single device can detect two wavebands is realized, the size of the detector can be greatly reduced, and the manufacturing cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of sensors, in particular to a silicon-based multi-band detector and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] A solar-blind photodetector is a photodetector that is insensitive to infrared, visible light, and near-ultraviolet light, but responds to short-wavelength ultraviolet light with a wavelength below about 300nm. Since the sun's ultraviolet radiation at short wavelengths is strongly absorbed by the atmosphere, the short-wavelength ultraviolet content of the solar radiation reaching the earth's surface is very small. Therefore, solar-blind UV photodetectors can be used in all applications that require detection of UV light without interference from strong visible light. For example, solar-blind detectors could be used to monitor levels of ultraviolet radiation on Earth, which increases due to the depletion of the ozone layer. It can be widely used in the field of medical care and health. S...
