Abstract
本发明公开了一种GaAs基LFET太赫兹红外光探测器和制备方法,该探测器包括吸收区、阻挡区、源漏区、介电区和栅区六个部分,制备方法包括五个步骤,即通过光刻、离子注入、等离子体增强化学气相沉积法(PECVD)、热蒸发技术在高阻GaAs基底依次形成吸收区,源漏区(与阻挡区),介电区,源漏电极,以及栅区。本发明的优点是:栅区电压导致吸收区载流子耗尽有效降低了光生电子‑空穴对的复合速率,提高了内量子效率,从而提高了传统杂质光电导型光子探测器的探测率,并且与当前的半导体工艺技术相兼容。
Description
技术领域
本发明涉及一种基于LFET(类场效应晶体管)和杂质带吸收光电导原理的THz红外探测器和制备方法,特别适合于波长处于40-300微米范围的THz红外光的探测。
背景技术
红外探测技术在气象预报、环境监控、导弹制导、夜视成像等领域有重要的应用需求,这方面以HgCdTe、InGaAs等主流的红外探测器为主,主要响应1-20微米波段。这类器件是基于半导体pn结构光伏效应原理工作,因而,探测器的响应率高并且器件具有较高的工作温度(液氮),发展迅速。但受材料类型的制约,探测器的响应波长较短。
近年来,随着国家对深空红外探测技术的需求,阻挡杂质带(BIB)探测器日益得到重视,主要的器件类型及响应波段有:硅掺砷(Si:As)覆盖10~25μm,硅掺锑(Si:Sb)覆盖20~40μm,锗掺镓(Ge:Ga)覆盖40~70μm,应变锗掺镓(Ge:Ga)覆盖70~200μm,特别是GaAs掺碲(GaAs:Te)的响应波长范围长达30~300μm,是探测深空冷对象的最优探测器。由于探测波长较长,BIB探测器的工作原理利用杂质光电导效应,不同的是增加一层相同材料类型的高电阻阻挡层,有效降低了器件暗电流。为了提高器件的内量子效率,BIB器件工作时处于外偏压状态,目的是在吸收区形成一段载流子耗尽区,但较窄的耗尽层宽度影响了器件的探测率。
发明内容
本发明的目的是提供一种GaAs基LFET THz红外光探测器,并提供一种实现该结构的制备方法,解决了传统BIB探测器耗尽层较窄导致器件量子效率偏低的技术难题。所述的新型探测器的结构和工作方式不同于传统的FET和BIB探测器,其特征在于:
所述的探测器的吸收区和阻挡区代替了晶体管的沟道;
所述的介质层隔断了源漏电极;
所述的探测器的工作方式在于:源漏区和栅区分别施加固定大小的偏压,被探测光背入射至吸收区,通过监控源漏区之间电流的变化来探测入射光。
所述的GaAs基底是高阻型半导体材料,载流子浓度范围1×1012-8×1012cm-3,使阻挡区载流子浓度基本处于本征值,从而阻挡吸收区杂质带载流子通过。
一种实现该探测器的制备方法,包括如下步骤:
①利用光刻工艺在高阻GaAs基底表面形成掩膜层,接着离子注入吸收杂质形成吸收区;
②利用光刻工艺在GaAs基底表面形成掩膜层,接着离子注入重掺杂杂质形成源漏区和阻挡区;
③采用PECVD工艺在GaAs基底表面蒸镀一层Si3N4介质层;
④利用光刻工艺在介质层表面形成掩膜层,接着热蒸发金属膜形成源漏极欧姆接触;
⑤利用光刻工艺样品在表面再次形成掩膜层,接着热蒸发金属膜制备栅区。
本发明的优点是:
1.探测器结构吸收了FET晶体管和BIB探测器的优点,而弥补了BIB的不足,采用此结构的器件响应波长长,并且具有很高的探测率。
2.本发明结构简单,制备成本低,与当前的半导体工艺相兼容,并且容易推广应用到其它Ge、Si基器件。
附图说明
图1为GaAs基LFET THz红外光探测器结构图。
图2为本发明实施例的器件工艺流程示意图。
具体实施方式
下面结合附图1、2和具体的实施例来详细阐述利用本发明一种GaAs基LFET THz红外光探测器和制备方法制备GaAs:Zn FET THz红外探测器的工艺技术及工作方式:
选择低阻值高纯GaAs基底1,杂质浓度3×1012cm-3,清洗超声后利用掩膜曝光工艺在基底表面覆盖一层光刻胶71,露出吸收区2;
采用离子注入方法注入Zn原子形成吸收区2,杂质浓度和深度分别为3×1016cm-3和200nm;
利用套刻工艺在GaAs基底1表面覆盖露出源漏区3的图形光刻胶72,并利用离子注入Zn原子形成重掺杂的源漏区3和阻挡区11,杂质浓度5×1018cm-3;
采用PECVD工艺在GaAs基底1表面蒸镀一层200nm厚的Si3N4介质层4;
利用光刻工艺在介质层4表面形成掩膜层73,接着热蒸发Ti、Au膜形成源漏极6欧姆接触;
最后,利用光刻工艺样品表面再次形成掩膜层74,接着热蒸发Au膜制备栅区(5)。
工作时,源漏区3和栅极5分别施加约1V和3V电压,当波长约40微米的红外光入射至吸收区,产生的电子-空穴对迅速被分开至源漏区3,导致流过Keithley 2601B电流表的电流值发生变化,即可算出响应率。
