Title:
ULTRAVIOLET PHOTODETECTOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3894790
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ultraviolet photodetector having a device structure of dispensing with the contact layer of an ohmic electrode for an n-type semiconductor layer.
SOLUTION: An ultraviolet photodetector is equipped with a device structure having at least an n-type semiconductor layer of AlxGa1-xN (0≤x≤1), and a pair of electrodes provided at the prescribed sites on the device structure. A photodetection region formed of one or more semiconductor layers in the device structure is provided in the ultraviolet photodetector. One of the electrodes formed on the n-type semiconductor layer is an ohmic electrode containing ZrB2.
