23 March 2010Silicon nanowire metal-semiconductor-metal photodetectors
Silicon nanowire photodetectors were fabricated for large area digital imaging applications. An array of silicon
nanowires fabricated by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) was incorporated into lateral metalsemiconductor-
metal (MSM) photodetectors with 2 μm electrode spacing. A collection efficiency of up to 0.36 and responsivity of 0.136 was measured using an applied bias of -10V. The rise time in response to a blue LED light source was measured to be 35.2 μs.
