Abstract

The fabrication of photodiodes of InSb on epilayers was discussed. The metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) technique was used for the purpose. Zero-bias-resistance area products as high as 1×10 6ωcm2 and dark reverse current density as low as 1×10-7 A/cm2 at -0.1 V bias were measured. It was found that MOVPE is the best technique for the fabrication of state-of-the-art focal plane InSb detector arrays.
