Problems solved by technology

However, the disadvantage of the back-illuminated photodetector is that it is difficult to test and package: an additional flip-chip welding process is required during testing and packaging, and the detector is welded on another substrate; in addition, due to the existence of the remaining InP substrate, in order to realize Higher optical coupling efficiency requires the integration of silicon lenses on the surface of the InP substrate, which further increases the difficulty of alignment and packaging

Abstract

The invention discloses a high-speed high-response photoelectric detector and a manufacturing method thereof. The photoelectric detector comprises a substrate, a P-type electrode, an active layer and an N-type electrode, and the P-type electrode serves as a reflecting layer of incident light at the same time. The manufacturing method of the photoelectric detector comprises the following steps: growing an epitaxial layer on an InP substrate; evaporating a P-type electrode Ti / Pt / Au on the P-InGaAs contact layer, evaporating metal Au on the other substrate, and integrating the InP sheet and the other substrate sheet together through a gold-gold thermocompression bonding technology; removing the InP substrate; preparing an N electrode on the N-InP contact layer; corroding the active layer of the detector, and etching the P-type electrode; depositing a SiNx medium, and forming windows on the N-type electrode and the P-type electrode through etching; and manufacturing an Au electrode, and finally completing the preparation of the photoelectric detector. The photoelectric detector prepared through the preparation method has the advantages of being large in bandwidth, high in response and easy to couple and package.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor devices, in particular to a high-speed and high-response photodetector and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Photodetectors can realize photoelectric conversion and are widely used in fields such as optical communication and laser radar. Bandwidth and responsivity are two important performance indicators of photodetectors. Compared with waveguide photodetectors, surface-incidence photodetectors are easier to achieve high-efficiency coupling with optical fibers; however, surface-incidence photodetectors have a contradiction between bandwidth and responsivity: when the thickness of the light-absorbing region is thinner , the shorter the carrier drift time, the faster the response rate of the device, but the smaller the device responsivity. [0003] The back-illuminated photodetector can alleviate the contradiction between the above-mentioned mutual constraints of bandwidth ...
