METHOD OF FABRICATING AVALANCHE PHOTODIODE

摘要

A method includes: forming an epitaxy wafer by growing a light absorbing layer, a grading layer, an electric field buffer layer, and an amplifying layer on the front surface of a substrate in sequence; forming a diffusion control layer on the amplifying layer; forming a protective layer for protecting the diffusion control layer on the diffusion control layer; forming an etching part by etching from the protective layer to a predetermined depth of the amplifying layer; forming a first patterning part by patterning the protective layer; forming a junction region and a guardring region at the amplifying layer by diffusing a diffusion material to the etching part and the first patterning part; removing the diffusion control layer and the protective layer and forming a first electrode connected to the junction region on the amplifying layer; and forming a second electrode on the rear surface of the substrate.
