Surface passivation of random alloy AlGaAsSb avalanche photodiode
AlGaAsSb attracts significant interest for near‐infrared avalanche photodiodes (APD). The authors report a two‐order reduction in the dark current and a six‐time enhancement of gain in random alloy (RA) AlGaAsSb APD that is surface passivated by ...

Multiplication and excess noise characteristics of thin 4H-SiC UV avalanche photodiodes [PDF]
The avalanche multiplication and excess noise characteristics of thin 4H-SiC avalanche photodiodes with an i-region width of 0.1 µm have been investigated. The diodes are found to exhibit multiplication characteristics which change significantly when the

AlGaAsSb Avalanche Photodiodes
Avalanche photodiodes are widely used in optical receivers for high-speed communication systems. We have been studying the material AlGaAsSb (lattice-matched to InP substrates) experimentally in recent years, evaluating its potential as an alternative avalanche material for these avalanche photodiodes. Our experimental studies cover key characteristics

High speed InAs electron avalanche photodiodes overcome the conventional gain-bandwidth product limit [PDF]
High bandwidth, uncooled, Indium Arsenide (InAs) electron avalanche photodiodes (e-APDs) with unique and highly desirable characteristics are reported. The e-APDs exhibit a 3dB bandwidth of 3.5 GHz which, unlike that of conventional APDs, is shown not to

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

Low-Noise 3-D Avalanche Photodiodes
In this paper, we present a new 3-D structure for the InP-based avalanche photodiode, aiming at decreasing the excess noise factor. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time new device designs based on the recently developed 3-D spatial dead ...
