Abstract
【解決手段】結晶材料の少なくとも一部にある非シリコン光センスデバイスは、内部の光吸収によって生成された電子を出力することができる。例示的な光センスデバイスは、比較的大きいミクロン寸法を有し得る。例示的な応用例として、アスペクト比トラッピング技術を用いることによって、相補型金属酸化膜半導体光検出器がシリコン基板上に形成される。
【選択図】図1a
Description
する開口は、例えばシャロートレンチアイソレーション技術を用いて、基板に形成される。開口内にアスペクト比トラッピング結晶構造114を過度成長させることによって、過度成長結晶部116を得ることができる。過度成長結晶部116は、基板に形成された開口の高さの1.5倍以上、2倍以上、5倍以上、10倍以上、または5〜10倍の高さHを有し得る。過度成長結晶部116は、基板に形成された開口の幅Wbの1.5倍以上、2倍以上、5倍以上、10倍以上、または5〜10倍の幅Wを有し得る。
望の大きなサイズ(例えば、100ナノメータ以上、500ナノメータ以上、1ミクロン以上、2ミクロン以上、5ミクロン以上、10ミクロン以上、または20ミクロン以上、およびより好ましくは、2〜5ミクロン)を有する半導体デバイスまたは半導体デバイスの構成要素はしたがって、過度成長結晶部128上、または過度成長結晶部128内に形成され得る。
半導体デバイス144、148、および152の構成要素は、例えばCMOSプロセスなどの標準のシリコンプロセスを用いて基板100のパターンに形成される。よって、非シリコンベースの半導体デバイスの構成要素の非シリコン半導体デバイスは、シリコンプロセスに統合(例えば同一平面上に形成)される。
長結晶部156に形成される。p型領域158およびn型領域162は、ドーピングによって得ることができる。過度成長結晶部160は、例えば100ナノメータ以上、500ナノメータ以上、1ミクロン以上、2ミクロン以上、5ミクロン以上、10ミクロン以上、または20ミクロン以上、より好ましくは2〜5ミクロンの大きなサイズ有し得るため、真性i領域160は、例えば100ナノメータ以上、500ナノメータ以上、1ミクロン以上、2ミクロン以上、5ミクロン以上、10ミクロン以上、より好ましくは2〜5ミクロンの大きいサイズを有し得る。
