An Improved Design for Solar-Blind AlGaN Avalanche Photodiodes

To enhance the impact ionization coefficient of holes, we proposed an improved solar-blind AlGaN avalanche photodiode (APD) structure by using a low-Al-composition AlGaN multiplication layer and a filter based on periodic photonic crystal together with a composition graded interlayer between separat...
