While there is a need to reduce the Ron value of these devices, conventional (100)-substrates do not have a suitable orientation for this purpose because their hole mobility is lower than that of (1 10)-substrates.

Quantum-well modulators' work using a red shift of the absorption edge or the change in refractive index that occurs when an electric field is applied across the quantum wells in the waveguide core. In normal p-i-n structures the doped cladding layers act as electrical contacts. In our \"hetero-nip?' design the multiple-quantum-well region is split into several thin regions separated by doped layers, alternating between nand ptype. When ohmic contacts are applied, connecting all the n-type layers together and likewise the p-type layers, the necessary large electric field across the quantum wells is obtained with a small applied voltage. Making the selective contacts is a problem. A shadowed regrowth technique' has been demonstrated on a reflection modulator operating by band-filling in quantum wells. A simpler method, demonstrated on a tunable Bragg mirror, is to etch a mesa with sloping walls through the entire structure and to apply lateral contacts on the walls3 We have, for the first time, made a waveguide 'modulator with a hetero-nipi core. It performed more efficiently than any reported p-i-n structure. Our device, grown by molecular beam epitaxy on a semi-insulating GaAs substrate, had a waveguide core containing 2 complete n-i-p-i periods. Each intrinsic layer contained ten 75 8, GaAs quantum wells with 45 A AlAs barriers. AlAs has an advantage over AlGaAs as a barrier material because it gives greater confinement at high electric fields! Each nor pdoped layer comprised 8 periods of 40 8, GaAs/22 AlAs superlattice, doped at 2 x 10\" ~ m ~ . The doped superlattice was used rather than AlGaAs to avoid contacting problems. The waveguide cladding layers were undoped M.,Ga,,As, 1.5 pm thick. Waveguide ridges were formed by wet etching. A wider mesa was then etched through to the lower cladding layer. Selective lateral ohmic contacts, Sn/Au for n-type and Zn/Au for p-type, were deposited on the sloping walls of the outer mesa. Satisfactory diode characteristics were obtained. A typical 300 pm device gave a reverse current of 50 ,uA at -1 V, compared to 1.4 mA at 1 V forward bias. Working in electroabsorption mode with 844 nm =-polarized light from a Ti:Sapphire laser, a 300 pm device gave a modulation ratio of 10: 1 at 1.0 V applied reverse bias, 100: 1 at 1.8 V. The zero-bias absorption loss was 4 dB. A 400 pm device was then tested as a phase modulator. It was placed in one arm of Mach-Zehnder interferometer, and an infra-red TV camera was used to view the resulting fringes. A phase shift of 180\" was obtained at 860 nm with negligible absorption losses at 1.5 V applied, and at 845 nrn with 3 dB of electroabsorption loss and only 0.8 V applied. The \"figure of merit\", defined as phase shift per mrn length and Volt, was as high as 560\"/Vmm. To our knowledge, this value is four times greater than that for any previously reported","PeriodicalId":310841,"journal":{"name":"51st Annual Device Research Conference","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121286101","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The impact of using submicron technology (0.5- mu m design rules) on JBS (junction barrier controlled Schottky) rectifiers is examined. Two-dimensional numerical simulations demonstrate that decreasing P/sup +/-junction width and depth improves the on-state voltage drop. This is due to the improved utilization of the active area for the Schottky region and improved spreading of majority carrier current from the Schottky contact. However, a junction depth of less than 0.3 mu m results in an undesirable high electric field at the Schottky interface during reverse bias, leading to barrier height lowering, which produces a large leakage current. A large reduction in the spreading resistance is possible by increasing the N-epitaxial layer doping and by reducing the cell pitch in order to achieve the same pinch-off voltage. However, increasing the doping above 2*10/sup 16/ cm/sup -3/ reduces the breakdown voltage below 25 V (which is required for 5 V power supplies). The simulations showed that, by using a proper choice of N-doping and P/sup +/-linewidth, one can reduce the leakage by one to two orders of magnitude as compared to a conventional Schottky buried diode. Experiments conducted to verify the simulations clearly demonstrate that the use of submicron technology can lead to significant improvement in JBS rectifier characteristics. >","PeriodicalId":310841,"journal":{"name":"51st Annual Device Research Conference","volume":"226 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115957873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
