Abstract :
The InGaAs/InP P-I-N photodiodes are grown by a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) with micro-effusion tubes of hydride carrier and reaction gases. Removing top InGaAs and using SiOx coverage on the photon absorbed area leads to enhance responsivity (~3 AAV) and quantum efficiency (>85%). And using Zn diffused to top ring InGaAs results in good ohmic contact region.
