Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of microelectronics technology, and specifically relates to a photoconductive switching device that can be used in ultra-wideband electromagnetic pulse generators and solid-state compact pulse power supplies. Background Technology

[0002] Photoconductive switches are a novel type of device that uses rapid laser pulses to excite electron transitions within a semiconductor device, generating a large number of photogenerated carriers and controlling the material's conductivity to achieve device switching. Compared to traditional spark gap switches, turn-off thyristors, and metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs), photoconductive switches offer advantages such as fast closing time, short bounce time, high repetition frequency, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and miniaturization, achieving a balance between power capacity and repetition frequency. Currently, a key challenge in the development of photoconductive switches is the low utilization rate of excitation light energy, which affects the output power of the device.

[0003] Patent application number 202310744520.2 discloses an optical structure for improving the light energy utilization of a gallium arsenide photoconductive switch. This optical structure consists of a photoconductive switch, a cylindrical lens, four mirrors, and a plano-concave cylindrical mirror. The first mirror, cylindrical lens, photoconductive switch, and second mirror are arranged horizontally from top to bottom, with their centers facing each other. The left end face of the cylindrical lens is bonded to the reflecting surface of the third mirror, and the right end face is bonded to the reflecting surface of the fourth mirror. The axis passes through the center of the third and fourth mirrors. A plano-concave cylindrical mirror is placed inside a circular through-hole in the middle of the first mirror. The gallium arsenide photoconductive switch, the third mirror, the first mirror, the plano-concave cylindrical mirror, and the fourth mirror constitute a sealed space containing the cylindrical lens. This optical structure design allows the pulsed laser to be reflected multiple times through the substrate material, increasing the optical path of the trigger laser within the device and improving the energy utilization of the pulsed laser. However, many problems still exist. Not only do we need to consider the position of the lens and the mirror, but with the increase in the number of optical mirrors, we also need to consider the alignment problem. At the same time, using various optical mirrors essentially increases the optical path of the trigger light in the substrate material, which is not conducive to the high-frequency response of the device.

[0004] Patent document CN201610211004.3 discloses a low on-resistance GaAs photoconductive switch with a high-reflectance film and an anti-reflection film. It includes a GaAs substrate, a highly doped n+-GaAs layer on the electrode region of the GaAs substrate electrode surface, a metal layer on the surface of the highly doped n+-GaAs layer, a high-reflectance film on the non-electrode region of the GaAs substrate electrode surface, and an anti-reflection film on the back electrode surface of the GaAs substrate. While this device can reduce the reflection loss of pulsed laser light at the incident surface and allow unabsorbed laser light to pass through the substrate a second time, increasing the optical path length within the device and thus improving light utilization, this solution still has several problems:

[0005] One reason is that the lattice mismatch between the thin film material and the substrate generates stress, which affects the quality of the thin film.

[0006] Secondly, the photoconductive switch needs to be irradiated by lasers multiple times during operation, which may damage the thin film material, directly affecting the reliability of the photoconductive switch and even causing it to fail.

[0007] Third, thermal stress generated between the multilayer stacked structures can cause the film to crack, reducing the antireflective and antireflective effects of the film. Summary of the Invention

[0008] To address the shortcomings of the prior art, this invention provides a photoconductive switch based on a nanosphere array and its fabrication method. One objective is to steadily improve the light energy utilization rate, increase the number of charge carriers during device operation, and improve the output power of the device. Another objective is to reduce the dark-state leakage current of the device and improve the power utilization rate.

[0009] The key technology to achieve the purpose of this invention is to design a structure of a metal microsphere nanoarray to change the propagation path of light and the distribution of electromagnetic field on the device surface.

[0010] Based on the above technical concept, the technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows:

[0011] 1. A photoconductive switch based on a nanosphere array, comprising a semi-insulating substrate 1, two metal electrodes 2 and two external connecting electrodes 3, characterized in that: the surface of the semi-insulating substrate 1 on the light-incident side is distributed with a nanosphere array 4; the nanosphere array is arranged in a two-dimensional pattern in a rectangular arrangement, with the distance between each pair of adjacent microspheres being the same.

[0012] Preferably, the nanosphere array 4 has a diameter of 50 nm to 250 nm and is made of any one of Ag, Cu, and Al.

[0013] Preferably, the semi-insulating substrate 1 is a cube with a side length of 6mm to 14mm and a thickness of 0.35mm to 1mm, and the material is any one of silicon carbide, gallium nitride, gallium arsenide, gallium oxide, and diamond.

[0014] Preferably, the two metal electrodes 2 are located on the same side or opposite side of the semi-insulating substrate, with one on the left side of the substrate and the other on the right side, and the horizontal distance between them is 1mm to 8mm, and they are in ohmic contact with the semi-insulating substrate.

[0015] Each metal electrode employs one of the following: Ni / Ti / Pt / Au composite metal layer, Ti / Pt / Au composite metal layer, W / Ti / Au composite metal layer, Ni / Ti / Au composite metal layer, or Ni / Au composite metal layer.

[0016] Preferably, the two external connecting electrodes 3 are located on the surfaces of two metal electrodes, and both are made of copper, gold or copper-gold material with a length of 6mm to 10mm, a width of 3mm to 7mm and a thickness of 0.05mm to 0.1mm.

[0017] 2. A method for fabricating a photoconductive switch based on a nanosphere array, characterized by comprising the following steps:

[0018] S1: Clean the semi-insulating substrate 1, then uniformly coat its front side with photoresist, expose and develop the front side through a mask with a prepared pattern, and prepare the required electrode pattern.

[0019] S2: Evaporate and sputter metal onto a semi-insulating substrate with an electrode pattern to form a metal layer.

[0020] S3: The semi-insulating substrate with the metal layer is peeled off to remove the metal layer in the non-electrode pattern area to form metal electrode 2.

[0021] S4: The desired nanosphere array pattern is prepared on the light-incident side of a semi-insulating substrate using ultraviolet nanoimprinting technology.

[0022] S5: Sputter metal onto one side of the fabricated nanosphere array pattern to form a nanometal layer.

[0023] S6: Peel off the light-incident side of the semi-insulating substrate on which the nano-metal layer has been prepared, and remove the metal in the non-nano-microsphere array pattern area to form nano-microsphere array 4.

[0024] S7: Weld external connecting electrodes 3 onto the metal electrodes, one of which is welded to the left half of the left metal electrode and the other to the right half of the right metal electrode to form a photoconductive switch device.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages because it has a nanosphere array distributed on the light-incident surface of the semi-insulating substrate:

[0026] Firstly, it can change the propagation path of light and the distribution of electromagnetic field on the surface of the device, increasing the interaction length and probability between light and matter. At the same time, it adopts a rectangular array structure of nanospheres with the same distance between each pair of adjacent microspheres to achieve better matching between the array and the strip-shaped light spot, thereby improving the utilization rate of light energy.

[0027] Secondly, electrons in the metal nanospheres can absorb photons and move into the substrate, increasing the operating current of the device and improving its output power.

[0028] Third, by utilizing the low conductivity of the oxide film formed on the metal surface of nanospheres, the dark-state resistance of the device can be improved, the leakage current of the device can be reduced, and the power utilization rate of the device can be increased.

[0031] The following detailed description of specific examples of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 This example is a photoconductive switch based on a nanosphere array, comprising a semi-insulating substrate 1, two metal electrodes 2, two external connecting electrodes 3, and a nanosphere array 4, wherein:

[0033] The semi-insulating substrate 1 is a cube with a side length of 6mm to 14mm and a thickness of 0.35mm to 1mm, and the material is any one of silicon carbide, gallium nitride, gallium arsenide, gallium oxide, and diamond.

[0034] The two metal electrodes 2 are located on the same side or opposite side of the semi-insulating substrate 1, with one on the left side of the substrate and the other on the right side.

[0035] The two external connecting electrodes 3 are located on the surfaces of two metal electrodes, and are made of copper, gold or copper-gold material with a length of 6mm to 10mm, a width of 3mm to 7mm and a thickness of 0.05mm to 0.1mm.

[0036] The nanosphere array 4 is located on the light-incident side of the semi-insulating substrate, and its diameter is 50nm to 250nm. The nanosphere array is arranged in a two-dimensional pattern in a rectangular arrangement, with the distance between each two adjacent microspheres being the same. The material is any one of Ag, Cu, and Al.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 This example provides three implementation methods for fabricating photoconductive switches based on nanosphere arrays:

[0038] Example 1: A photoconductive switch with a metal electrode of Ni / Ti / Pt / Au, an external connecting electrode of Cu, and a nanosphere array diameter of 200 nm made of Al was fabricated on a silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate.

[0039] Step 1: Prepare an electrode pattern on a silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate, as shown in 2a.

[0040] A silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate with a side length of 10 mm and a thickness of 1 mm was sequentially immersed in BOE solution, deionized water, acetone, isopropanol, and deionized water for ultrasonic cleaning for 120 s, 180 s, 600 s, 180 s, and 180 s, respectively. Then, photoresist was uniformly coated on the front side. The front side was exposed and developed through a mask with a pre-prepared pattern to prepare the two electrode patterns required.

[0041] Step 2: Prepare an electrode metal layer on a silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate, as shown in 2b.

[0042] The silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate with two electrode patterns was first subjected to evaporation of Ni metal with a thickness of 400 nm, and then subjected to argon gas and a vacuum of 1 × 10⁻⁶. -5 In an environment with a pressure of 1 Pa, the magnetron sputtering gas pressure was set to 1 Pa, and the sputtering power was 5 W / cm². 2 Under the specified process conditions, Ti / Pt / Au layers with thicknesses of 300nm / 300nm / 1000nm were sequentially sputtered and deposited to form metal layers.

[0043] Step 3: Fabricate a metal electrode on a silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate, as shown in 2c.

[0044] The blue film is attached to the surface of the metal layer and then peeled off to remove most of the metal layer outside the two electrode pattern areas. The semi-insulating substrate is then immersed in the stripping solution for 600 seconds to remove the remaining metal layer in the non-electrode pattern areas.

[0045] Then, the silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate was immersed in acetone, isopropanol, and deionized water for 300s, 180s, and 180s respectively, and then dried with nitrogen to remove residual photoresist and stripping solution, forming two metal electrodes 2.

[0046] Step 4: Fabricate a nanosphere array pattern on a silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate, as shown in 2d.

[0047] A layer of polymethyl methacrylate was spin-coated onto a silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate between two metal electrodes. A template of a rectangular, equally spaced nanosphere array with a diameter of 200 nm was pressed onto the uniformly distributed polymethyl methacrylate using a pressure of 1 Pa.

[0048] Then, irradiate polymethyl methacrylate with ultraviolet light for 250 seconds. After the polymethyl methacrylate undergoes a cross-linking reaction and is completely cured, remove the template and demold to obtain a rectangular array of equally spaced microspheres with a diameter of 200 nm.

[0049] The residual polymethyl methacrylate in the grooves of the microsphere array on the substrate is then removed by etching, forming a rectangular, equally spaced nanosphere array pattern with a diameter of 200 nm.

[0050] Step 5: Prepare an Al nanometal layer on a silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate, as shown in 2e.

[0051] At a vacuum degree of 1×10 -5 In an argon atmosphere at 1 Pa, the magnetron sputtering pressure was set to 1 Pa, and the sputtering power to 5 W / cm². 2 Under the specified process conditions, Al was sputtered and deposited to form an Al nanometal layer with a thickness of 200 nm.

[0052] Step 6: Prepare an Al nanosphere array on a silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate, as shown in 2f.

[0053] The blue film is attached to the surface of the Al nano metal layer, and then peeled off, removing most of the metal layer in the non-nano microsphere array pattern area. The semi-insulating substrate is then immersed in the stripping solution for 600 seconds to remove the remaining metal layer in the non-nano microsphere array pattern area.

[0054] Next, the silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate was immersed in acetone, isopropanol, and deionized water for 300s, 180s, and 180s respectively, and then dried with nitrogen to remove residual photoresist and stripping solution.

[0055] Then, the silicon carbide semi-insulating substrate with the metal layer is peeled off to remove the metal layer in the non-nanosphere array pattern area, forming a rectangular equally spaced Al nanosphere array with a diameter of 200 nm.

[0056] Step 7: Weld external connecting electrodes to form a photoconductive switch, as shown in 2g.

One of them was welded to the left half of the left metal electrode, and the other was welded to the right half of the right metal electrode, thus completing the fabrication of the photoconductive switch.
