Problems solved by technology

[0003] The traditional MSM Schottky junction detector relies on biasing both ends of the device to form a built-in electric field for collecting carriers, but the field strength of the Schottky barrier and the applied bias electric field is not as good as that of PIN, APD and other devices The built-in electric field of the PN junction is strong (because under the same reverse bias voltage, the depletion region of the PN junction is stronger than the depletion region generated by the Schottky potential contact, and the external bias is applied to the depletion region, and the built-in electric field generated is extremely strong ), the carrier collection efficiency and mobility are lower than PIN devices, the response time is longer, and it is easier to generate dark current
