Abstract

The invention is applicable to the technical field of photodetectors, and provides an InAlAs avalanche photodetector and a production method thereof. The method comprises the steps of sequentially preparing a buffer layer, an absorption layer, a charge layer, a gradient layer, an InAlAs multiplication layer and an N-type ohmic contact layer on a substrate and etching to form a mesa structure witha mesa side wall forming a preset inclination angle with the buffer layer, and preparing a P-type ohmic contact layer on the buffer layer except for the mesa structure; or preparing the buffer layer,the N-type ohmic contact layer, the InAlAs multiplication layer, the gradient layer, the charge layer, the absorption layer and the P-type ohmic contact layer on the substrate in sequence and etchingto form the mesa structure with a preset inclination angle between the mesa side wall and the N-type ohmic contact layer; and preparing ohmic contact electrodes in an exposed area of the P-type ohmiccontact layer and the exposed area of the N-type ohmic contact layer respectively, and acquiring the InAlAs avalanche photodetector. Edge breakdown can be suppressed through the mesa structure with the preset inclination angle, and the process is simple.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of photodetectors, and in particular relates to an InAlAs avalanche photodetector and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Photodetectors are devices that convert optical signals into electrical signals. As the core part of optical receivers, the performance of photodetectors determines the transmission capacity of optical fiber communication systems. With the development of optical fiber communication technology, the performance requirements of photodetectors are getting higher and higher. Compared with the traditional PIN structure detector, the avalanche multiplication effect generated by the carriers inside the avalanche photodetector under the bias voltage can greatly improve the sensitivity of photoelectric signal detection, thereby improving the response of the device and the signal-to-noise ratio, etc. . Therefore, in optical fiber communication systems, avalanche photodetect...
