Abstract

The dependence of the electrical properties in planar MQW - APD & pn, and p - i - n photodiode implanted with oxygen on the annealing emperatures and ion dose has been investigated. The oxygen implantation was performed for inter-device isolation. The leakage current of as-impanted p-i-n photodiode obtained was less than 50 nA. An annelaing temperature dependence study shows an abrupt increase of leakge current at 600.deg.C for all devices under study. This indicates that donor complex centers introduced by the chemical activity of oxygen increase with increasing annelaing temperatures. Furthermore, leakage current was highly correlated with oxygen dose due to th eimplanted related defects.
