Abstract

An InP avalanche photodiode with a guard ring structure is fabricated. The maximum avalanche gain obtained is 210 at a primary photocurrent of 0.2 μA, and uniform photoresponse without local enlargement is obtained at an avalanche gain of 10. Multiplication noise characteristics are investigated, and the effective ionization rate ratio of holes to electrons is found to be 1.7–1.8.
