Crosstalk Analysis for Mesa-based In-device Passivated InGaAs Photodetectors

2022-01-01
Electrical crosstalk of in-device passivated mesa-based InGaAs photodetectors has been analyzed by a three-pixel mini array illuminated from the backside. In-device passivation of mesa-based lattice-matched InGaAs photodetectors significantly suppresses the surface-related component of dark current-however, inter-pixel crosstalk increases due to the depletion condition of the in-device passivation layer between the pixels. The inter-pixel crosstalk originates mainly from the high electric field in the in-device passivation layer. Here, in mesa-based in-device passivated InGaAs photodetectors, inter-pixel crosstalk has been significantly improved by adjusting the electric field distribution between the pixels with the inclusion of a thin n-InP crosstalk-block layer without affecting the primary purpose of the detector structure, which is strong resistivity to surface-related dark current increase.

Electrical crosstalk suppression for mesa-based in-device passivated InGaAs photodetectors
Çırçır, Kübra; Kocaman, Serdar (2022-12-01)
Inclusion of an in-device passivation layer in mesa-based lattice-matched InGaAs photodetectors provides a lower dark current than the conventional mesa type structures. However, due to the high electric field in the passivation layer between the pixels, improved dark current characteristics come with increased electrical crosstalk. Manipulating the electrical field distribution with an additional thin epilayer promises to reduce this inter-pixel carrier collection without disturbing the primary aim of the ...
Wideband Quarter Wave Transformer Based on Defected Ground and Split Ring Resonator Structures
Yuksek, Yahya; Nesimoglu, Tayfun (2018-11-02)
This article examines a wideband impedance transformer based on a split ring resonator and defected ground structures. The transformer was designed as a 4 section binomial one and it provides a transformation from 50 SI to 100 Omega. Reversed "Z" shaped defects are formed on the ground plane of the design in order to increase the bandwidth. The design has been simulated using a 3D electromagnetic simulator which utilizes finite integration technique. Three distinct resonances are exhibited at specific frequ...

This paper presents the design of a monolithic phased array antenna with DMTL phase shifters on quartz substrate operating at 35 GHz. The design integrates DMTL phase shifters, rectangular slot antennas with the feed network comprising CPW lines, CPW T-junction and corners. On the four branches of the antenna, there are 5-bit phase shifters using 31 MEMS bridges, covering 360° with a resolution of 11.25°.
Metamaterial absorber-based multisensor applications using a meander-line resonator
AKGÖL, OĞUZHAN; ALTINTAŞ, OLCAY; Dalkilinc, Elif Eda; ÜNAL, EMİN; KARAASLAN, MUHARREM; Sabah, Cumali (2017-08-01)
A metamaterial (MTM) absorber-based multifunctional sensor is numerically and experimentally realized using meander-line resonators. The proposed sensor device can be used to measure pressure, density, and humidity with perfect signal absorption characteristics at the frequency range of X band. The structure consists of a sensor layer sandwiched between two dielectric slabs. The sensor layer is used to detect unknown environmental parameters with respect to the electromagnetic responses of the material unde...
Oscillations in dc driven barrier discharges: Numerical solutions, stability analysis, and phase diagram
SIJACIC, DD; EBERT, U; Rafatov, İsmail (American Physical Society (APS), 2005-06-01)
A short gas-discharge layer sandwiched with a semiconductor layer between planar electrodes shows a variety of spatiotemporal patterns. We focus on the spontaneous temporal oscillations that occur while a dc voltage is applied and while the system stays spatially homogeneous; the results for these oscillations apply equally to a planar discharge in series with any resistor with capacitance. We define the minimal model, identify its independent dimensionless parameters, and then present the results of the fu...
