Performance of Thin Separate Absorption, Charge, and Multiplication Avalanche Photodiodes
Previously, it has been demonstrated that resonantcavity-enhanced separate-absorption-and-multiplication (SAM) avalanche photodiodes (APD’s) can achieve high bandwidths and high gain–bandwidth products while maintaining good quantum efficiency. In this paper, we describe a GaAs-based resonant-cavity-enhanced SAM APD that utilizes a thin charge layer for improved control of the electric field pr...
متن کاملResonant normal-incidence separate-absorption-charge-multiplication Ge/Si avalanche photodiodes.
In this work the impedance of separate-absorption-charge-multiplication Ge/Si avalanche photodiodes (APD) is characterized over a large range of bias voltage. An equivalent circuit with an inductive element is presented for modeling the Ge/Si APD. All the parameters for the elements included in the equivalent circuit are extracted by fitting the measured S(22) with the genetic algorithm optimiz...
متن کاملPlasmonic field confinement for separate absorption-multiplication in InGaAs nanopillar avalanche photodiodes
Avalanche photodiodes (APDs) are essential components in quantum key distribution systems and active imaging systems requiring both ultrafast response time to measure photon time of flight and high gain to detect low photon flux. The internal gain of an APD can improve system signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Excess noise is typically kept low through the selection of material with intrinsically low...
متن کاملModeling and Fabrication of a Nano-multiplication-region Avalanche Photodiode
A nano-multiplication-region avalanche photodiode (NAPD) featuring confinement of a multiplication region and a charging region in a nano-pillar was proposed for realization of novel near-constant-gain mode multiplication, low dark count rate, low afterpulsing and high avalanche initiation probability. Process and device simulations showed that near-constant-gain mode multiplication can be real...
متن کاملPhysical Design Fundamentals of High-Performance Avalanche Heterophotodiodes with Separate Absorption and Multiplication Regions
Minimal value of dark current in reverse biased p −n junctions at avalanche breakdown is determined by interband tunneling. For example, tunnel component of dark current be‐ comes dominant in reverse biased p −n junctions formed in a number semiconductor ma‐ terials with relatively wide gap Eg already at room temperature when bias V b is close to avalanche breakdown voltage V BD (Sze, 1981), (T...
