摘要
High-gain photodiodes using an a-SiC:H(i)/a-Si:H(n)/a-Si:H(i) structure were investigated. A time-dependent two-step response to a light pulse was obtained, and we found that the fast response corresponds to primary photocurrent in the a-Si:H(i) layer and the slow response to secondary current injected from the a-SiC:H/a-Si:H(n) junction. The ratio of the secondary to primary photocurrent varies from 1.0 to 50, according to the impurity level of the a-Si:H layer near the heterojunction and also according to the injected photons in the a-Si:H (i) layer. The secondary photocurrent is controlled by the height and the width of the potential barrier at the blocking layer.
