摘要: A back-illuminated InGaAs photodiode is described in which a double layer of silicon nitride on the front surface serves several functions; both layers passivate the surface; an opening in the lower layer provides a diffusion mask for forming the p-n junction; and a narrower opening in the upper silicon nitride layer provides a deposition mask for forming a restricted area contact. In order to reduce strain near the junction, and hence reduce leakage currents and enhance reliability, the contact geometry has a narrow pedestal portion which contacts the surface in a zone remote from the junction edges and has a wider cap portion which is formed on the pedestal portion to seal the surface from the introduction of contaminants.

摘要: A normally-OFF switch includes a transistor branch path and a parallel pair of oppositely poled thyristor branch paths to protect against voltage surges. To minimize latching-on of the thyristors as a result of voltage surges, the thyristor branch paths including light emitting diodes which light up when excess current flows in the thyristor branch paths and actuate a photodiode array which biases the transistor path to conduction to divert excess current from the thyristor path.
