Abstract

SPAD structures have been grown by RP-CVD and shown to have: excellent crystallinity, with low TDD; a smooth surface, suitable for device incorporation; and sharp doping profiles required to maximize performance. Device measurements have produced the highest SPDE of any Ge on Si SPAD recorded.
