摘要:
A HEMT has an InAlAs layer (202), an InGaAs layer (203), a multiple δ-doped InAlAs layer (204) composed of n-type doped layers (204a) and undoped layers (204b) which are alternately stacked, an InP layer (205), a Schottky gate electrode (210), a source electrode (209a), and a drain electrode (209b) on an InP substrate (201). When a current flows in a region (channel region) of the InGaAs layer (203) adjacent the interface between the InGaAs layer (203) and the multiple δ-doped InAlAs layer (204), a breakdown voltage in the OFF state can be increased, while resistance to the movement of carriers passing through the multiple δ-doped InAlAs layer (204) as a carrier supplying layer is reduced.
摘要:
An avalanche photodiode (APD) of the present invention uses a distortion-compensated superlattice multiplication layer (103) for the superlattice multiplication layer. It also uses a multi-layered light-reflecting layer as the light-reflecting layer. This structure of the present invention makes it possible to reduce a layer thickness of the superlattice multiplication layer without decreasing an electron multiplication factor and increasing a dark current. Accordingly, the APD of the present invention shows high response and low operating voltage, while it also maintains low dark current, low noise and broad band at the same time.
