Description

Back incidence solar blind ultraviolet detector and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of photoelectric detectors, in particular to a back incidence solar blind ultraviolet detector and a preparation method thereof.
Background

The solar blind ultraviolet detector has the advantages of high quantum efficiency, high sensitivity, stable performance, low background noise, difficult interference of radiation, chemistry and the like, wide detection range and the like, is widely applied to a plurality of military and civil fields such as missile guidance, early warning, fire alarm, communication, solar astronomical research and the like at present, and particularly has the advantages of high detection sensitivity and high precision in places with weak ultraviolet signals.
In the existing solar blind ultraviolet detector preparation technology, the preparation materials mainly comprise three types of 4H-SiC, mgZnO, gaN/AlGaN, and different solar blind ultraviolet detectors prepared from the three types of materials have advantages and disadvantages. The 4H-SiC type solar blind ultraviolet detector has high melting point and good heat conduction performance, is suitable for working at high temperature and high energy, but has the defects of low quantum efficiency and unadjustable band gap; the MgZnO solar blind ultraviolet detector has the advantages of single crystal substrate matching, no toxicity or harm, simple synthesis, low cost, high electronic saturation and drift speed, wide band gap, adjustability and the like, but lacks a packaging technology corresponding to the MgZnO solar blind ultraviolet detector at present; the GaN/AlGaN solar blind ultraviolet detector has the advantages of stable chemical property, difficult radiation interference, adjustable band gap by doping Al, good detection performance, high response speed, high growth temperature, difficult substrate matching and the like.
Related technology for preparing a solar blind ultraviolet detector is developed to date, gaN/AlGaN is the best preparation material at present, and is most widely applied to ultraviolet detectors with wide band gaps. In AlGaN-based p-i-n junction UV detectors, the p-region increases the sensitivity to UV light, making it easier for the i-layer to be absorbed and excited electron-hole pairs to form carriers and to transit in a short time. The p-i-n junction of the detector can greatly improve the detection capability, generate more carriers and accelerate the carrier speed, the i layer enables the matrix material not to influence the breakdown voltage any more, and the responsivity, the response time and the quantum efficiency of the device are improved. Although AlGaN-based p-i-n junction uv detectors have many advantages, there are also some disadvantages: when Al ions are injected to prepare AlGaN with high Al composition, the AlGaN can collide with the sapphire substrate, so that the crystal lattice is damaged and thermally mismatched, and high dislocation density and film cracks are caused; the p-type doping is not efficient.
