Reduced junction area barrier-based photodetector

A photodetector structure having a barrier layer disposed between a pair of like-conductively doped semiconductor layers, the barriers layer having a surface area smaller than the surface area of the upper one of the pair of semiconductor layers. A fill material is disposed between outer peripheral...

Zusammenfassung:A photodetector structure having a barrier layer disposed between a pair of like-conductively doped semiconductor layers, the barriers layer having a surface area smaller than the surface area of the upper one of the pair of semiconductor layers. A fill material is disposed between outer peripheral edges of the barrier layer and a region between outer peripheral edges of the first and second layers.
