InGaAs/InP SPAD With Monolithically Integrated Zinc-Diffused Resistor

Afterpulsing and optical crosstalk are significant performance limitations for applications employing near-infrared single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs).

Zusammenfassung:Afterpulsing and optical crosstalk are significant performance limitations for applications employing near-infrared single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs). In this paper, we describe an InGaAs/InP SPAD with monolithically integrated resistor that is fully compatible with the planar fabrication process and provides a significant reduction of the avalanche charge and, thus, of afterpulsing and optical crosstalk. In order to have a fast SPAD reset (
