چکیده

We report AlxIn1-xAsySb1-y PIN and Separate Absorption, Charge and Multiplication (SACM) avalanche photodiodes (APDs) with high temperature stability. This work is based on measurements of avalanche breakdown voltage of these devices for temperatures between 223 K and 363 K. Breakdown voltage temperature coefficients are shown to be lower than those of APDs fabricated with other materials with comparable multiplication layer thicknesses.

Investigation of temperature and temporal stability of AlGaAsSb avalanche photodiodes

Since avalanche gain and breakdown voltage in most semiconductor materials change with temperature, instruments utilizing Avalanche Photodiodes (APDs) for their avalanche gains need to incorporate either temperature stabilization or voltage adjustment in the APD operation circuits. In this work we evaluated the temperature and temporal stability of avalanche gain in Al0.85Ga0.15As0.56Sb0.44, a ...

Thin Al1−xGaxAs0.56Sb0.44 diodes with extremely weak temperature dependence of avalanche breakdown

When using avalanche photodiodes (APDs) in applications, temperature dependence of avalanche breakdown voltage is one of the performance parameters to be considered. Hence, novel materials developed for APDs require dedicated experimental studies. We have carried out such a study on thin Al1-x Ga x As0.56Sb0.44 p-i-n diode wafers (Ga composition from 0 to 0.15), plus measurements of avalanche g...
