Özet

The electrical characteristics of photodiode structures on the base of InAS/InAsSbP heterojunctions, that have a high room-temperature differential resistance and operate in the mid-infrared region over the wavelength range 1.6-3.5 mu m are reported. As a result of C-Vmeasurements, the obtained p-n heterojunctions were abrupt, with 1/C-2 similar to V, and the impurity concentration in the weakly doped region was (5-7)x10(15) cm(-3) at room temperature. An experimental investigation of current-voltage characteristics has been done in the temperature range 77-340 K, and have been determined the mechanism of the flow of dark currents in InAS/InAsSbP heterojunction photodiodes.
