Problems solved by technology

In order to increase the barrier height formed by ITO / semiconductor materials, it has become a common practice to insert other materials including insulators and metals between ITO type and semiconductor materials, but still face poor conductivity, sharp drop in responsivity and dark current. At present, these structures have not yet achieved silicon-based near-infrared detection with sufficient performance.

Abstract

The invention provides a silicon-based Schottky photoelectric detector and a preparation method and application thereof. According to the photoelectric detector, the influence on light absorption can be reduced as much as possible while the Schottky barrier is increased to suppress dark current, the large responsivity of the device is guaranteed while the dark current is greatly suppressed, the light transmission performance of the electrode is effectively improved, and therefore the ultra-low dark current high responsivity silicon-based near infrared detector compatible with the CMOS technology is obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of semiconductor devices, and relates to a silicon-based Schottky photodetector and a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] Optical communication technology, which uses light as the information carrier to realize communication, has become one of the most important technologies in modern society by virtue of its excellent speed transmission performance and powerful information capacity. Among them, photodetectors that perform photoelectric signal conversion have also become a research hotspot. The existing mature complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) processes are all based on silicon materials. However, bulk silicon materials have little absorption of light with wavelengths exceeding 1100nm. Therefore, photodetectors with excellent performance in the optical communication band 1310nm and 1550nm are mainly are based on compound semiconductors (III-V) and Ge-Si materials. I...
