Abstract: Back-illuminated Al0.42Ga0.58N/Al0.40Ga0.60N heterojunction p-i-n solar-blind UV photodetectors grown on sapphire by metal organic chemical vapor deposition are fabricated.An ideality factor of n=3 and a series resistance of RS=93Ω are obtained from the forward current-voltage curve of the device.The external quantum efficiency and detectivity at a peak wavelength of 275nm at zero-bias voltage are 9% and 4.98e11cm·Hz1/2·W-1,respectively.Mere 15.7% of the spectral transmittance of the Al0.42Ga0.58N window layer at 275nm results in the low external quantum efficiency and detectivity.

Key words: solar-blind UV photodetectorideality factorseries resistancephotoresponsedetectivity
