Protective coating on the p-n junction of In0.53Ga0.47As/InP p-i-n planar diodes by vacuum-evaporated glass

A technique for protecting the p-n junction of InGaAs planar diodes using thermally evaporated glass films has been developed. A planar diode with a 90-μm-diam diffused junction protected with the glass film had a reverse current less than 1 nA at −20 V. The diode showed low reverse current even aft...

Zusammenfassung:A technique for protecting the p-n junction of InGaAs planar diodes using thermally evaporated glass films has been developed. A planar diode with a 90-μm-diam diffused junction protected with the glass film had a reverse current less than 1 nA at −20 V. The diode showed low reverse current even after prolonged high-temperature exposure (≳275 °C for 24 h) in air.
