Ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors have drawn extensive attention owing to their applications in
industrial, environmental and even biological fields. Compared to UV-enhanced Si …

Reflecting changes in the field in the ten years since the publication of the first edition, The
Handbook of Photonics, Second Edition explores recent advances that have affected this …

The three volumes of this handbook treat the fundamentals, technology and nanotechnology
of nitride semiconductors with an extraordinary clarity and depth. They present all the …

We report solar-blind Al/sub x/Ga/sub 1-x/N-based heterojunction pin photodiodes with low
dark current and high detectivity. After the p+ GaN cap layer was recess etched, measured …

We report on the high performance solar-blind AlGaN-based pin photodetectors that are
grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition on c-plane sapphire substrates. The dark …

Design, fabrication, and characterization of high-performance Al/sub x/Ga/sub 1-x/N-based
photodetectors for solar-blind applications are reported. Al/sub x/Ga/sub 1-x/N …

The authors report high performance solar-blind photodetectors with reproducible
avalanche gain as high as 1560 under ultraviolet illumination. The solar-blind …

We report AlGaN/GaN-based high-speed solar-blind photodetectors with indium-tin-oxide
Schottky contacts. Current–voltage, spectral responsivity, and high-frequency response …

The authors report the Geiger-mode operation of back-illuminated GaN avalanche
photodiodes. The devices were fabricated on transparent AlN templates specifically for back …

Al0. 38Ga0. 62N/GaN heterojunction solar-blind Schottky photodetectors with low dark
current, high responsivity, and fast pulse response were demonstrated. A five-step …
