Back Illuminated Photodiodes

US Patent:
6894322, May 17, 2005
Filed:
Feb 10, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/361233
Inventors:
Steven Kwan - Belle Mead NJ, US
Rafael Ben-Michael - Scotch Plains NJ, US
Mark Itzler - Princeton NJ, US
Assignee:
JDS Uniphase Corporation - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H01L031/0328
US Classification:
257186, 257187, 257188, 257189, 257191, 257190, 257438, 257458
Abstract:
A highly reflecting back illuminated diode structure allows light that has not been absorbed by a semiconductor absorbing region to be back reflected for at least a second pass into the absorbing region. The diode structure in a preferred embodiment provides a highly reflecting layer of gold to be supported in part by a conducting alloyed electrode ring contact and in part by a passivation layer of SiN. Conveniently this structure provides a window within the contact which allows light to pass between the absorbing region and the reflecting layer of gold.

International Classification:
G02B 6/30
G02B 6/26
G02B 6/42
G02B 6/38
G02B 6/36
G02B 6/00
H01L 29/732
US Classification:
385 49, 385 39, 385 70, 385 88, 385 92, 385140, 257184
Abstract:
An optical coupling assembly having an optical receiver that exhibits extended dynamic range, and, more particularly, an optical receiver that is integrated with a Variable Optical Attenuator (VOA) to extend the dynamic range of the receiver.

Apparatus Comprising An Avalanche Photodiode

US Patent:
7378689, May 27, 2008
Filed:
Oct 17, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/251965
Inventors:
Mark Allen Itzler - Princeton NJ, US
Rafael Ben-Michael - Scotch Plains NJ, US
Assignee:
Princeton Lightwave, Inc. - Cranbury NJ
International Classification:
H01L 29/80
US Classification:
257186, 257438
Abstract:
Avalanche photodiodes are provided, wherein the APDs provide both high optical coupling efficiency and low dark count rate. The APDs are formed such that their cap layer has an active region of sufficient width to enable high optical coupling efficiency but the APD still exhibits a low dark count rate. These cap layers have a device area with an active region and an edge region, wherein the size of the active region is substantially matched to the mode-field diameter of an optical beam, and wherein the size of the edge region is made small so as to reduce the number of defects included. These APD designs maintain a substantially uniform gain and breakdown voltage, as necessary for practical use.

Method For Forming An Avalanche Photodiode

US Patent:
7553734, Jun 30, 2009
Filed:
Oct 17, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/251964
Inventors:
Rafael Ben-Michael - Scotch Plains NJ, US
Mark Allen Itzler - Princeton NJ, US
Assignee:
Princeton Lightwave, Inc. - Cranbury NJ
International Classification:
H01L 21/20
US Classification:
438380, 257233, 257E27133
Abstract:
Methods for fabricating an avalanche photodiode (APD), wherein the APD provides both high optical coupling efficiency and low dark count rate. The APD is formed such that it provides an active region of sufficient width to enable high optical coupling efficiency and a low dark count rate. Some APDs fabricated using these methods have a device area with an active region and an edge region, wherein the size of the active region is substantially matched to the mode-field diameter of an optical beam, and wherein the size of the edge region is substantially minimized and further wherein the device region maintains a substantially uniform gain and breakdown voltage.
