Abstract
Fast aluminum-gallium-nitride–based metal–semiconductor–metal ultraviolet photodiodes were successfully designed, fabricated, and characterized using conventional photolithography techniques. Various electrode geometries were fabricated to investigate the influence of metal contact shapes on the device performance indices with emphasis on the response speed and bias-voltage–independent efficiency. Based on the independently measured Hall mobility and electric field, we evaluated the carrier transit time of the devices as 1.31 ps with bias-voltage–independent external quantum efficiency of 1198% in photoconductive mode at 19.5 V and 70% at 60 V for <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$n$ </tex-math></inline-formula> -doped and intrinsic devices, respectively.
