2 Objective To study the effect of difference ion implantation conditions on the current-voltage characteristic of the photodiode. Experiments/Apparatus 1. SILVACO Software. 2. Computer. Introduction Figure 1: Cross section of a planar p + -n silicon photodiode. Figure 1 shows the cross section of a planar p + -n silicon photodiode. The p + area can be realised by ion-implantation of boron into a predefined area on the surface of a highly resistive n-type silicon wafer so that a p-n junction could be formed within the device. The geometry of the predefined area can be defined by depositing a layer of silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) diffusion mask having windows etched in it using common photolithography technique. The depth of the junction is basically relied on the choice of the wavelengths of light to be detected. For example, if the device is designed mainly for detecting blue and ultraviolet wavelengths, a shallow junction is required so that the photogenerated carriers are able to diffuse to the junction, being swept out from the device and contribute to the photocurrent. The front contact is usually realised by litt-off the metal that is previously evaporated on a layer of pre-patterned photoresist. The back contact can be realised by multilayer metallisation process. Due to the gradient of the doping concentration of boron after the implantation process, holes from the p + region diffuse across the n-type silicon region while electrons from the n-type region diffuse into the p + region so that the charge neutrality could be maintained at the interface between these regions. Thus, a depletion region is formed at the interface between the p + region and n-type silicon regions with an electric field across 2
3 it which is commonly known as the built-in electric field. This depletion width increases with the applied reverse bias and causes the capacitance of the device drops. When light (photon) is absorbed in the depletion width, an electron-hole pair is generated if the energy of the light is greater than the bandgap energy (~ 1.1 ev) of silicon. The photogenerated hole and electron are being swept out from the depletion region into the p + and n-type regions, respectively in the reverse bias mode. This eventually yields the photocurrent that flows in the external circuitry. On the other hand, photogenerated holes and electrons have the possibility of recombine together before they are being swept out from the depletion region and hence do not contribute to photocurrent. The parameter used to quantify the sensitivity a photodiode in absorbing light is given by the responsivity, R [A/W] which is defined as the ratio of the photogenerated current over the incident optical power as below [4] R I P ph opt q hv μm 1.24, [A/W] (1) where is the quantum efficiency (percentage of the capability of converting light into current) of the photodiode, q = C, h is the Plank constant, v is the frequency of light, I ph is the photocurrent and P opt is the incident optical power. For example, silicon based photodetectors operating at wavelengths in the range of 900 nm have quantum efficiency value of 80 % and give a responsivity value of 0.58 A/W. Equation (1) also shows that the responsibility of the photodetector with the same quantum efficiency will drop when incident photons with shorter wavelength is shone on the photodetectors. When light is shone on the photodiode, electron-hole pairs can be generated in or outside the depletion region (space-charge region that forms between the p + -n boundary). The generation rate of these carries is decreasing exponentially as a function of the depth of the photodiode. If the depth of the junction is poorly designed and formed deep into the surface of the p + region, there is only a small fraction of light that can arrive at the junction. In this situation, almost all of the photogenerated carriers within the surface of the p + region to the p + -n interface have recombined before they are able to diffuse to the depletion region. This yield in low photocurrent level because only those electron-hole pairs that are generated, by the small fraction of light, in or at a distance within a diffusion length away from the depletion region are able to contribute to photocurrent. As a result, the quantum efficiency is less than unity which degrades the responsivity of the photodiode as well as its performance. The relationship between the current that flows through the photodiode with the applied reveries bias is given by the diode equation and it is written as below q Vrb Vbi nk BT I I 0e 1, (2) 3
4 where q = C, k B = J/m, V bi is the built-in voltage, V rb is the applied reverse bias and T is the temperature in Kelvin. n is the ideality factor of the photodiode which n = 1 for an ideal photodiode and n > 1 for a non-deal photodiode. The parameter I 0 is the saturation current of the photodiode which consists of the minority currents of the electrons and holes that are diffusing across the p + -n junction and it is written as below 2 2 Dnn Dpn i i I 0 qa, (3) Ln N a Lp N d where A is the cross section of the junction of the photodiode, n i is the intrinsic concentration, D n and D p are the electron and hole diffusion constants, and L n and L p are the electron and hole diffusion lengths, respectively. In this lab work, the diode equation is represented by the continuity equations for electron and hole and they are numerically solved in the Silvaco software so that the current-voltage characteristic of the photodiode can be determined. Device Fabrication Processes The device that is shown in figure 1 can be realised by a series of fabrication processes which includes photolithography, etching, thin film deposition, ion implantation and metallisation. The actual sequence of the fabrication steps that is used to realise the device shown in figure 1 is described below. Fabrication procedures: 1. Deposit a layer of SiO 2 to serve as the hard-mask for the ion implantation of boron. 2. Transfer the patterns (opening area for ion implantation) from the optical mask to the SiO 2 layer by means of photolithography process. 3. Etch away the areas of SiO 2 which are not covered by the photoresist so that the areas for ion implantation are exposed. 4. The dopants (boron) are implanted into the n-type silicon wafer by ion implantation process. 5. The dopants are further drive-in into the silicon wafer using the thermal diffusion process. 6. Remove the photoresist. 7. Transfer the top metal contact patterns from the optical mask to the silicon wafer by means of photolithography process. 8. Perform metallisation process so that aluminium contacts are formed at the predefined areas on the surface of the silicon wafer. 9. Perform litt-off process to remove the unwanted metals and then remove the photoresist. 10. Perform another metallisation process to deposit metal on the rear surface of the wafer. 4
5 Simulation Procedures The fabrication procedures that had been outlined in the previous section can be simulated using the ATHENA module in the Silvaco software. The ATHENA is a simulation module that is made to model or simulate difference real fabrication processes. As shown in figure 1, the p + region of the silicon photodiode can be realised via the ion-implantation technique in which the dopant (Boron) is implanted into the substrate by aiming a high energy ion beam that consists of the dopants on the prepatterned substrate. The dopants hit and penetrate into the wafer, travelling a distance before they eventually come to rest due to the nuclear and electronic stopping processes that deaccelerate the dopants. The simulation of the ion-implantation process can be implemented via the ATHENA module in the Silvaco software. The default model used in the ATHENA to describe the ion-implantation process is called SIMS verified Dual Pearson (SVDP) model [1]. In this model, the concentration of the implanted dopants in terms of the longitudinal direction is described by a linear combination of two Pearson functions [1] and the simulated dopant profile had been experimentally verified. Usually, the implanted dopants are located about a few hundred nanometers deep into the surface and the thermal drive-in process is required following the implantation process if a deep junction is required. The Fermi diffusion model based on the Fick s law is employed in the Silvaco to describe the thermal drive-in of the implanted dopants into the n-type silicon substrate [1]. The mechanism involve in the dopant diffusion depends on the concept of Pair Diffusion in which the diffusion of the dopants is assisted by the presence of the point defects such as self-interstitial and lattice vacancy surrounding the dopant, and they are moving together as a pair into the silicon wafer. How deep the dopant diffuses into the substrate is controlled by the drive-in time which is basically determined by the required depth of the junction. The temperature required in the drive-in process is used to provide the dopant with enough thermal energy so that they can diffuse into the substrate at a faster rate.

Device Simulation Procedures This section simulates the electrical characteristics of the silicon planar photodiode that was fabricated in the previous part (Device Fabrication Processes). The influences of the carrier recombination, described by Shockley-Read-Hall (SRH) and Auger recombination, on the carrier transport are included in the simulation. These processes will cause some of the carriers recombine before they arrive at the contacts and contribute to electrical current. The concentration dependence of mobility of the carriers and the velocity saturation effect are also included in the simulation to simulate the transport behaviour of the carriers within the device [2]. This simulation will obtain the current-voltage (I-V) characteristic of the photodiode in response to an incident light that is having a wavelength value of 623 nm and intensity value of 5 W/cm 2. The simulation result is then obtained by performing the Newton method to solve all the models that are used to describe the transport of the carriers in the device. a.
