Description

A kind of sudden change relaxed buffer layers for high In ingredient InGaAs detector
Technical field
The invention belongs to Semiconductor Optoeletronic Materials and devices field, particularly a kind of sudden change relaxed buffer layers for high In ingredient InGaAs detector.
Background technology
Because InGaAs material is full constituent direct band gap material, by regulating In component, 0.8 ~ 3.5 mu m waveband can be covered.And the advantages such as highly sensitive, fast response time, radiation-resisting performance are good, working and room temperature that InGaAs detector has, therefore InGaAs is the ideal material preparing short infrared wave band detector.Such as, room temperature cut-off wavelength is the In of 1.7 μm 0.53ga 0.47as detector is applied widely in optical communication field, and material primary growth is in the InP substrate of mating with it, but along with In component continuation raising, between InGaAs material and InP substrate, mismatch can be increasing.When In component is 83%, In 0.83ga 0.17mismatch between As and InP substrate increases to+2.1%.Owing to lacking the substrate of Lattice Matching, the defect concentration in expansion wavelength InGaAs material for detector becomes and causes its device dark electric current comparatively large, restricts one of key factor of its application.In view of the restriction of the aspects such as InAs substrate band gap is narrower, preparation difficulty, apply its possibility as substrate growth high In ingredient InGaAs material and greatly reduce.As compared to the substrate such as InP with InAs, GaAs substrate has that mechanical strength is high, size is large and the excellent properties such as cheap, is one of good selection of development low-dark current density, large face battle array InGaAs infrared focal plane device.But, due to the mismatch between InAs and GaAs comparatively large (+6.7%), relative to substrates such as InP and InAs, high In ingredient In xga 1-xthere is larger mismatch between As (0.53<x<1) and GaAs substrate, this will be unfavorable for high-quality material epitaxial growth.Therefore need the resilient coating growing a fixed structure between substrate and epitaxial loayer, to discharge larger compressive strain, blocking effect is produced to dislocation simultaneously, to reduce defect concentration in InGaAs absorbed layer, reduce device dark current.For the growth of larger mismatched material, the method of " virtual substrate " is constructed in usual employing, namely by the buffer layer structure at conventional commercial Grown lattice constant alternation, make it to mate from mating with substrate lattice to transit to gradually with device active region material lattice, reduce the mismatch between epitaxial loayer and substrate, the research of mismatch mutation system made of new structural material in mismatch substrate and device can be opened up by the method.But, when passing through varied buffer layer structure growth InGaAs material at present on the substrates such as InP and GaAs, substantially the InAlAs varied buffer layer structure all adopting In component to increase progressively gradually, namely In component is forward graded approach, mismatch lower feature when this is also relatively applicable to lower In component, and the growth of larger mismatch InGaAs material when being directed to high In ingredient, it is also conceivable to the buffer layer structure adopting In component reverse grading.
For GaAs substrate, when buffer layer structure according to component reverse grading prepares high In ingredient InGaAs panel detector structure material, because the mismatch between InAs and GaAs is up to 6.7%, therefore InAs critical thickness is on gaas substrates thinner, the easy InAs material obtaining height relaxation, if insert the strain compensation superlattice in suitable cycle at substrate and InAs interface layer place, be expected to away from obtaining the good InAs layer of crystalline quality near the top layer at interface; Now, then adopt conventional containing alas cpd as resilient coating time, can adopt the mode that In component is successively decreased gradually, namely In component is decremented to component needed for absorbed layer gradually by 100% in InAs.As adopted In xal 1-xduring As resilient coating, then (y is In In component x to be reduced to y by 1 yga 1-yin component in As absorbed layer), and lattice constant between identical InAlAs and the InGaAs of In component is very close, thus realize lattice constant by the gradually transition of InAs to InGaAs.For growing the buffer layer structure of In component forward alternation on gaas substrates, on the one hand, because a large amount of misfit dislocations mainly produces between GaAs substrate and InAs layer, the threading dislocation grown in the InAlAs resilient coating on the InAs layer after height relaxation is expected to obtain and reduces; On the other hand, for the InGaAs material of growth high In ingredient, the mismatch between InGaAs and InAs is much smaller relative to GaAs, as In 0.8ga 0.2mismatch between As and GaAs is+5.73%, and and mismatch between InAs be only-1.34%.Therefore, adopt the buffer layer structure of In component reverse grading, under buffer layer thickness one stable condition, mismatch speed can be controlled little as much as possible, thus reduce the phenomenons such as the slippage that produces under larger effect of stress of dislocation, be conducive to that misfit dislocation is buried in oblivion not enter in absorbed layer in resilient coating, thus be expected to the InGaAs absorbed layer material obtaining crystalline quality raising, reduce device dark current density.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem to be solved by this invention is to provide a kind of sudden change relaxed buffer layers for high In ingredient InGaAs detector, this panel detector structure can expand the method for production that wavelength in Semiconductor substrate is greater than the InGaAs Infrared Detectors of 1.7 μm, what adopt In component reverse grading contains aluminum arsenide varied buffer layer structure, be expected to the strain better discharged in larger mismatch InGaAs material, reduce defect concentration in InGaAs absorbed layer, improve device performance.
