Description

Preparation method of flexible InGaAs detector
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of semiconductor optoelectronic devices, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a flexible InGaAs detector.
Background
There are many important applications for the near infrared band. For example, silica fiber is in the low loss and low dispersion windows at 1.31 microns and 1.55 microns, respectively, and lasers and detectors at these two wavelengths are widely used in long wave fiber communication. The InGaAs detector is widely applied to optical fiber communication systems due to its good performance, and plays an important role in the current information age. The research of the detector for optical communication mainly focuses on the response speed of the device, so that structures such as a waveguide type PIN detector, an MSM structure, an APD, a WG-APD, an RCE-PIN and an RCE-APD are correspondingly developed on the basis of optimizing the traditional PIN type structure. In addition, the InGaAs detector has wide application in the fields of quantum communication, laser radar, infrared remote sensing, gas detection, night vision observation and the like.
With the urgent growth of demands for smart detection, smart sensing, big data collection, smart medical treatment, etc., wearable flexible infrared detectors are needed in numerous fields. Based on the application target, flexible infrared detectors made of various materials, such as organic materials, quantum dot materials, carbon fiber materials and the like, are developed. The flexible detector made of different materials has advantages and disadvantages in the aspects of device performances such as detectivity and sensitivity, bendability and ductility. The infrared detector prepared based on the traditional III-V group semiconductor material has the advantages of high detection rate, high sensitivity and the like, but the III-V group semiconductor material is difficult to be directly prepared on the flexible substrate and needs to be transferred to the flexible substrate after being prepared on the semiconductor substrate. This puts high demands on the preparation technology, which greatly increases the preparation difficulty.
A commonly used method is to use an etch stop layer, which is inserted between the substrate and the device layer, and then the substrate is etched away by wet etching, and the substrate is stopped at the etch stop layer. Another method is to grow a layer of AlAs sacrificial layer material between the substrate and the device layer, and to detach the device structure from the substrate after selectively etching off the AlAs sacrificial layer by hydrofluoric acid. However, for flexible InGaAs detectors, the etching of the substrate in the first method is time-consuming, labor-consuming, and also not economical and environmentally friendly, and it is necessary to protect InP in the device structure from etching during the etching of the substrate; in the second method, many dislocations are generated in the epitaxial layer due to the great lattice mismatch between AlAs and InP and InGaAs materials, which greatly affects the quality of the materials and devices.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to solve the technical problem of providing a preparation method of a flexible InGaAs detector, wherein the detector structure is that an InP lower contact layer, an InGaAs absorption layer and an InP upper contact layer are sequentially arranged on an InP nucleating layer, the InP upper contact layer and the InP lower contact layer are provided with contact electrodes, and the side faces of the InP upper contact layer and the InP lower contact layer are coated with a passivation film. Through single-layer graphene on the InP substrate, a potential field of the InP substrate can be used for growing high-quality InP and InGaAs epitaxial layers; the substrate and the device structure are not separated in the device preparation process, so that the device process operation is facilitated; meanwhile, the graphene isolates chemical bonds of materials on two sides, so that the stripping can be conveniently carried out, and the preparation of the flexible InGaAs detector is realized. The method specifically comprises the following steps:
(1) covering a single-layer graphene on the InP substrate;
(2) growing an InP nucleating layer at low temperature by adopting a molecular beam epitaxy method;
(3) heating the substrate to a growth temperature, and sequentially growing an InP lower contact layer, an InGaAs absorption layer and an InP upper contact layer;
(4) preparing a detector structure by using a device preparation process;
(5) and stripping the detector structure from the substrate by using a heat release adhesive tape to finish the preparation of the flexible InGaAs detector.
The growth temperature of the InP nucleation layer grown at the low temperature in the step (2) is 300-350 ℃, and the thickness is 50-200 nm.
The growth temperature in the step (3) is 500 ℃ for the InP lower contact layer and the InP upper contact layer and 550 ℃ for the InGaAs absorption layer.
Advantageous effects
According to the invention, the InGaAs detector structure material is grown through the single-layer graphene on the InP substrate, and the potential field penetration effect of the InP substrate is utilized to conveniently grow the high-quality InP and InGaAs epitaxial layers; in the process of device preparation, the substrate and the InGaAs detector device structure are kept together, which brings great convenience to device process operation; due to the fact that chemical bonds of materials on two sides are isolated by the graphene, the flexible InGaAs detector can be conveniently stripped by the aid of the heat release adhesive tape, and the flexible InGaAs detector is manufactured. The invention can also be popularized to the preparation of other flexible III-V semiconductor devices and has good universality.
