Description

累崩型光检测器元件及其制作方法
技术领域
本发明涉及一种累崩型光检测器(avalanche photo detector,以下简称为APD)元件及其制作方法,尤其是涉及一种具有散热结构(heat sink)的APD元件及其制作方法。
背景技术
APD元件为一种灵敏的半导体光感测器元件,因此常被用于诸如长程光纤通讯(long haul fiber-optic telecommunication)、激光测距仪(Laser rangefinders)、以及单一相片电平侦测及成像(single photo level detection and imaging)等需要高灵敏度的应用。现有的APD元件可至少包含硅与锗:其中锗提供了近红外线波长(波长为850m)波长上的高反应率,而硅能够在低杂讯下放大所产生的光载流子。因此,由硅与锗这两者形成的APD元件为一可侦测近红外线(near-infrared)光信号的装置,其已广泛应用于近红外线的光纤通讯中。当然,可用以形成APD元件的材料不限于硅与锗,还可包含如砷化铟镓(InGaAs)、磷砷化铟镓(InGaAsP)、磷化铟(InP)等III-V族元素及其组合。除850nm之外,APD元件可侦测的光波长也可依需要达到1310nm或1577nm。
发明内容
因此,本发明的一目的在于提供一种APD元件及其制作方法,以解决现有技术存在的问题。
为解决上述问题,本发明提供一种APD元件,该APD元件包含有一具有一正面与一背面的基底、至少一设置于该基底的该正面的APD结构、多个设置至于该基底的该背面的散热结构(heat sink)、以及多个设置于该基底的该背面的岛状反射结构。
本发明还提供一种APD元件的制作方法,该制作方法首先提供一基底,且该基底包含有一正面与一背面。接下来,于该基底的该正面形成一APD结构,随后图案化该基底的该背面,以于该基底的该背面形成多个散热结构,以及形成于该多个散热结构之间的多个凹槽。之后,形成多个岛状反射结构,且该多个岛状反射结构分别形成于该多个凹槽的底部。
根据本发明所提供的制作方法所得到的APD元件,基底的正面包含有至少一APD结构,而基底的背面则包含有反射结构与散热结构。反射结构可用以将穿透APD结构的光线反射回APD结构,故可增加APD元件整体的反应率(responsivity)以及灵敏度(sensitivity)。而散热结构则可将APD结构在光感测时产生的热有效排除,故可确保APD元件整体在运作时不致发生过热等影响元件效能的状况。

具体实施方式
请参阅图1至图7,图1至图7为本发明所提供的一APD元件的制作方法的一第一较佳实施例的示意图。如图1所示,本发明所提供的APD结构的制作方法首先提供一基底100,且基底100定义有一正面100F与一背面100B。在本较佳实施例中,基底100较佳为一硅覆绝缘(silicon-on-insulator,以下简称为SOI)基底,但不限于此。一般来说,SOI基底如图1所示,由下而上可依序包含一硅基底层102、一底部氧化(bottom oxide,以下简称为BOX)层104、以及一形成于BOX层104上的半导体层106,例如一具单晶结构的硅层。此外,在本较佳实施例中,BOX层104上的半导体层106中还包含一n型掺杂区108。另外须注意的是,在半导体层106上形成有一半导体平台(mesa)110,此半导体平台由下而上可依序包含一n型掺杂半导体层112、一本质(intrinsic)半导体层114、以及一p型掺杂半导体层116。在本较佳实施例中,n型掺杂半导体层112的一掺杂浓度低于半导体层106的一掺杂浓度。此外,本质半导体层114指该半导体层为一未掺杂的半导体膜层,也就是说,本质半导体层114内并未包含任何型态的导电掺杂质(conductive dopant)。然而,熟悉该项技术的人士应知,在本发明的其他实施例中,上述半导体平台110内膜层的组合以及浓度关系可依产品需要调整,故不限于此。
请参阅图2与图3。接下来,可于基底100的正面100F形成一图案化氧化层118。如图2所示,图案化氧化层118包含一开口118O,且半导体平台110暴露于开口118O的底部。接下来,于开口118O内形成一外延半导体层120。在本较佳实施例中,外延半导体层120可通过选择性外延成长(selective epitaxial growth,以下简称为SEG)方法形成于开口118O的底部,但不限于此。是以,如图3所示,开口118O内所形成的外延半导体层120以及半导体平台110所包含的p型掺杂半导体层116、本质半导体层114与n型掺杂半导体层112构成一APD结构130。
请继续参阅图3。在利用SEG方法形成外延半导体层120并形成APD结构130之后,可同位地进行一沈积制作工艺,于基底100的正面形成一非晶硅(amorphous silicon)层122。非晶硅层122的一厚度可以是1埃(angstroms,
Figure GDA0002265442580000041
),但不限于此。
请参阅图4。在形成非晶硅层122之后,可于基底100的正面100F形成一图案化保护层(图未示),且图案化保护层覆盖并保护半导体平台110。随后进行一蚀刻制作工艺,用以移除未被图案化保护层覆盖的非晶硅层122,而暴露出半导体层106与部分n型掺杂区108。而在蚀刻制作工艺之后,可进行一离子注入制作工艺,而于暴露出来的半导体层106内形成一n型重掺杂区124。在本较佳实施例中,n型重掺杂区124的一掺杂浓度大于n型掺杂区108的掺杂浓度,而n型掺杂区108的掺杂浓度如前所述大于半导体平台110内的n型掺杂半导体层112的掺杂浓度。请继续参阅图4。在形成n型重掺杂区之后124,可再形成一图案化保护层(图未示),且图案化保护层覆盖并保护APD结构130以及n型重掺杂区124。随后进行一蚀刻制作工艺,用以移除未被图案化保护层覆盖的半导体层106,直至暴露出半导体层106底部的BOX层104,如图4所示。
请参阅图5。接下来,于基底100的正面100F形成一介电层140。在本较佳实施例中,介电层140可以是内层介电(interlayer dielectric,ILD层,但不限于此。随后,于介电层140内形成多个开口140C,且开口140C如图5所示,暴露出n型重掺杂区124以及部分外延半导体层120上方的非晶硅层122。此外须注意的是,在形成介电层140之前,或在形成介电层140以及开口140C之后,可进行一金属硅化物制作工艺,而于n型重掺杂区124表面以及部分外延半导体层120上方的非晶硅层122表面形成金属硅化物(图未示)。
请参阅图6。随后,于开口140C内分别形成一导电结构142。如图6所示,部分导电结构140与APD结构130电连接,且部分导电结构140与n型掺杂区108内的n型重掺杂区124电连接。在本较实施例中,与APD结构130电连接的导电结构140还与一操作电压VDD电连接,而与n型重掺杂区124电连接的导电结构142则还与一接地电压VSS电连接。在本较佳实施例中,导电结构142可以是一内连线结构(interconnection)的第一层金属层,但不限于此。在形成导电结构140之后,于基底100的正面100F形成一覆盖APD结构130以及基底100的正面100F的抗反射(anti-reflection)层144。
请参阅图7。在完成上述APD结构130、介电层140与导电结构142等组成元件的制作后。可于基底100的正面100F形成一保护层(图未示)以及承载基板(图未示)。随后翻转基底100,而对基底100的背面100B进行图案化。如图7所示,本较佳实施例图案化基底100的背面100B,以于基底100的背面100B形成多个散热结构150,以及形成于散热结构150之间的多个凹槽152。另外须注意的是,在本较佳实施例中,图案化制作工艺可由SOI基底100的背面100B向正面100F方向蚀刻SOI基底100的硅基底层102,而使得BOX层104暴露于凹槽152的底部。然而,熟悉该项技术的人士应知,在本发明的其他实施例中,可调整图案化制作工艺的参数,使得硅基底层102未被完全移除,而暴露于凹槽152的底部。
请继续参阅图7。在形成散热结构150以及散热结构150之间的凹槽152之后,还可于凹槽152的底部分别形成一金属层,且金属层作为APD结构130的反射结构。如图7所示,在本较佳实施例中,金属层为设置于凹槽152内的岛状反射结构160,且散热结构150的一厚度大于岛状反射结构160的一厚度,因此岛状反射结构160通过散热结构150彼此分离。简单地说,本较佳实施例所提供的散热结构150包含半导体材料,且该半导体材料与至少部分基底100相同,而反射结构160则包含金属材料。如前所述,由于散热结构150通过图案化基底100的硅基底层102所得,故散热结构150的材料即为基底100的硅基底层102的材料。至此,完成一包含有APD结构130、反射结构160与散热结构150的APD元件200,如图7所示。
接下来请参阅图8至图11,图8至图11为本发明所提供的APD结构200的背面的上视图,图7则可以是图8至图11中沿A-A’切线所得的剖视图。更重要的是,图8至图11分别绘示了本发明所提供的散热结构150与岛状反射结构160不同的实施型态。如8图所示,在本发明的一实施例中,至少一岛状反射结构160设置于APD元件200的中心点,且如图7所示,与APD结构130对齐,而散热结构150则环绕此一中心岛状反射结构160,并呈一向外放射图案,其他的岛状反射结构160则如图8所示分别由此一具有向外放射图案的散热结构150分隔。如图9所示,在本发明的另一实施例中,散热结构150包含有一同心圆图案,而岛状反射结构160则分别设置于同心圆图案中,并分别由散热结构150分隔。在该实施例中,较佳有至少一岛状反射结构160与APD结构130对齐,如图7所示。如图10所示,在本发明的另一实施例中,散热结构150包含有一网孔(mesh)图案,而岛状反射结构160则分别设置于网眼之中,并分别由散热结构150分隔。在该实施例中,较佳有至少一岛状反射结构160与APD结构130对齐,如图7所示。如图11所示,在本发明的又一实施例中,散热结构150包含有一放射状图案图案,而岛状反射结构160则分别由散热结构150分隔。
请重新参阅图7。根据本发明所提供的APD元件及其制作方法,主要是在基底100的正面100F完成APD结构130的制作后,于基底100的背面100B形成散热结构150以及岛状反射结构160。如图7所示,岛状反射结构160较佳对应于APD结构130。因此,穿透APD结构130的光线可通过岛状反射结构160返回APD结构130,故可增加APD元件200整体的反应率与灵敏度。举例来说,APD元件200的灵敏度可增加2dBm,但不限于此。更重要的是,岛状反射结构160虽然增加了光的反射,但其阻挡了APD结构130与空气的接触,故影响了操作中产生的热能的传递。而本较佳实施例则通过散热结构150的设置,增加了散热路径B的数量以及与空气的接触面积,故可确保APD结构130在操作中不致产生过热的问题,更确保了APD元件200的整体效能。
另外请参阅图12,图12为本发明所提供的APD元件的一第二较佳实施例的示意图。首先须注意的是,第二较佳实施例与第一较佳实施例中,相同的组成元件具有相同的符号说明,且可包含相同的材料选择,并通过相同的方法形成,故该多个细节于此皆不再赘述。第二较佳实施例与第一较佳实施例不同之处在于,在形成散热结构150以及凹槽152之后,不但于凹槽152的底部形成岛状反射结构160,本较佳实施例更是于基底100的背面100B形成多个反射层160,且反射层160如图12所示,覆盖凹槽152的侧壁与散热结构150的顶部表面。此外,反射层162还接触岛状反射结构160,以于基底100的背面100B形成一连续性反射膜160R。
在本较佳实施例中,由岛状反射结构160与反射层162构成的连续性反射膜160R可使得穿透APD结构130的光线返回APD结构130,故可增加APD元件200整体的反应率与灵敏度。而本较佳实施例则通过散热结构150的设置,增加了散热的路径数量,故可确保APD结构130在操作中不致产生过热的问题,更确保了APD元件200的效能。
综上所述,根据本发明所提供的制作方法所得到的APD元件,基底的正面包含有至少一APD结构,而基底的背面包含有多个反射结构与多个散热结构。本发明所提供的该多个反射结构可用以将穿透APD元件的光线反射回APD元件,故可增加APD元件的反应率以及灵敏度。而本发明所提供的该多个散热结构则可将APD元件在光感测时产生的热有效排除,故可确保APD元件在运作时不致发生过热等影响元件效能的状况。
以上所述仅为本发明的较佳实施例,凡依本发明权利要求所做的均等变化与修饰,皆应属本发明的涵盖范围。
