Abstract

The avalanche breakdown behaviour of (AlxGa1-x)0.52In0.48P has been investigated by growing a series of pin diode structures and by measuring the reverse leakage currents until the onset of avalanche breakdown. Comparing the breakdown voltage (Vbd) with that of GaAs, significant increases are obtained, with AlInP having in excess of twice the Vbd of GaAs.
