The solar-blind photodetectors have a sharp cut-off around 276 nm. We improved the device performance by designing different epitaxial wafer structure with thinner active multiplication layer. We compare the resulting fabricated devices from these wafers in terms of dark current, photoresponse, avalanche gain performances.EnglishAlGaNSolar-blindAvalancheSchottkyArticle10.1016/j.photonics.2007.05.0011569-4429
