Description

Silicon photomultiplier detector structure, making and use
1. technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of semiconductor light detector of high-gain, especially have structure, making and the method for application of the silicon photomultiplier detector of single photon resolved detection sensitivity, belong to H01L 27/00 based semiconductor device technology field.
2. technical background
Weak light detection device technology has very important application in fields such as high-energy physics, astrophysics and nuclear medicines.Present most widely used weak light detection device mainly is photomultiplier (PMT).But PMT exists, and volume is big, WV and power consumption are high, damage easily, receive photocathode restriction detection efficiency lower, to magnetic-field-sensitive and be not suitable for making shortcoming such as large scale array, limited its application in many occasions.Development along with the semiconductor light detector; A kind of silicon photomultiplier detector (Silicon photo-multiplier that is called as; SiPM) or be called as the multiple-unit photon counter (Multi-Pixel PhotonCounters, the highly sensitive semiconductor light detector that MPPC) waits more and more comes into one's own in the weak light detection field, its principle of work and developing history are consulted document (D.Renker; Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics ResearchA; Vol.567, pp.48-56,2006).This photo-detector generally is of a size of several avalanche photodide (Avalanche Photo Diode to up to a hundred microns by hundreds of to several thousand; APD) the unit monolithic is integrated on the same silicon chip and constitutes, and the resistance (being snowslide cancellation resistance) of an about hundreds of kilohm is all connected in order to the snowslide cancellation and voltage recovery of control APD unit in each APD unit.All APD unit parallel connection outputs, shared 1 load, each APD cell operation is under Geiger mode angular position digitizer (Geigermode), and promptly bias voltage is higher than its voltage breakdown.When some APD unit receives a photon, the photo-generated carrier that is produced will trigger avalanche breakdown, and the opto-electronic conversion gain can reach 10 5-10 6A photon can produce the potential pulse of millivolt magnitude on 50 ohm, its follow-up amplifying circuit becomes very simple.In the linear zone of dynamic range, total output signal is proportional to the number of the APD unit of unit interval generation avalanche breakdown.Because this device can carry out single photon detection as photomultiplier, therefore be known as the silicon photomultiplier detector.The gain of SiPM high (10 5-10 6), WV low (<100V), low in energy consumption, response speed fast (ns magnitude), volume be little, easy of integration, do not receive magnetic interference, good reliability, with low cost.Each APD cell operation is under count mode; Not gain fluctuation as linear model APD or superfluous noise; Have than the better single photon resolving power of PMT and (consult D.Renker, Nuclear Instruments and Methods inPhysics Research A, Vol.567; Pp.48-56,2006).(consult P.Buzhan, et al., Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research A, Vol.567 at high-energy physics; Pp.78-82,2006), astrophysics (is consulted N.Otte, Proceedings of the IX International Symposium on Detectorsfor Particle, Astroparticle and Synchrotron Radiation Experiments; SNIC Symposium, Stanford, California; 1,2006), nuclear medicine (is consulted A.N.Otte, Nuclear Instruments andMethods in Physics Research A; Vol.545, pp.705-715,2005), dna sequencing (consults GeorgiyGudkov; Et al., Proc.SPIE, 6372; 63720C-1,2006) etc. the detection range of faint optical signal has the potentiality that substitute traditional photomultiplier, has very application prospects.
SiPM still is in Rapid development stage at present, and the subject matter of existence comprises:
(1) there is contradictory relation between detection efficiency and the dynamic range.The snowslide cancellation resistance of SiPM generally adopts the DOPOS doped polycrystalline silicon resistor stripe that is positioned at device surface, and polysilicon generally adopts the preparation of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method.If will improve detection efficiency; Need take the APD element number less; The panel detector structure that each cellar area is bigger; But the easy like this probability that cause the above photons of 2 or 2 to be received by same APD unit simultaneously cause under lower photon count rate detector output saturated, and dynamic range is restricted.If will avoid photon count rate saturated, just need take the panel detector structure that the APD cellar area is little, number is many.So " dead band " area ratio of occupying of the polysilicon resistance bar of detector surface, metal A l interconnection line, protection ring dwindles with the APD cellar area and increases; To the ratio that makes photosensitive area with the detector total area (how much fill factor, curve factors) reduction, must sacrifice detection efficiency.
(2) comparatively responsive to temperature.The resistance of DOPOS doped polycrystalline silicon (being snowslide cancellation resistance) increases with temperature, and the avalanche breakdown voltage of SiPM also increases with the increase of temperature simultaneously.Constant when the WV maintenance, the temperature increase causes cancellation resistance to increase, and its dividing potential drop increases, and drops to the structural voltage of APD and reduces.Avalanche breakdown voltage increases with the increase of temperature in addition, causes SiPM overbias (being voltage drop and avalanche breakdown voltage poor on the APD) to reduce, and the gain of SiPM reduces.It is as the same that otherwise temperature reduces.
(3) dark count rate of SiPM is higher.The dark count rate of SiPM is generally 400kHz-1MHz/mm 2, big more than general PMT causes SiPM to be restricted for the detection of atomic low light level signal and the making of large tracts of land SiPM.
3. summary of the invention
To the problem that has contradiction between present SiPM detection efficiency and the dynamic range, the present invention proposes a kind of new structure with high cell density.It is characterized in that adopting the silicon epitaxial wafer epitaxial loayer bulk resistor that links to each other with the APD unit to replace generally being positioned at the doped polycrystalline silicon strip resistance on surface; Snowslide cancellation and the voltage of controlling the APD unit recover (referring to G.Q.Zhang; Etal., Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research A, Vol.621; Pp.116-120,2010).This structure can be eliminated the resistance material and the interconnected aluminum steel thereof that are positioned at the surface blocking and absorb light; Reduce " dead band " area in the photosensitive area; Make that the APD cellar area is little, density is high, fill factor, curve factor is high, detection efficiency and dynamic range can be taken into account preferably.
To temperature sensitive issue comparatively, the present invention proposes a kind of new snowslide cancellation resistance preparation method to present SiPM.It is characterized in that adopting metallic aluminium (Al) film and the thermal treatment that cover on the amorphous silicon film to induce the amorphous silicon crystallization (referring to DongliZhang; Et al., IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, VOL.55; Pp.2181-2186; 2008), obtain doped polycrystalline or monocrystalline silicon, and the resistivity of regulating polysilicon film through the thickness and the annealing conditions of control Al film.The sheet resistance of preparation has negative temperature coefficient in this way, and promptly resistance reduces with the temperature increase, and vice versa.Therefore, constant when the WV maintenance, the temperature increase causes cancellation resistance to reduce, and its dividing potential drop reduces, and drops to the structural voltage of APD and increases.Avalanche breakdown voltage increases with the increase of temperature in addition, causes SiPM overbias (being voltage drop and avalanche breakdown voltage poor on the APD) to keep relative stability.In addition, compare with conventional doped polycrystalline sensistor technology, aluminium induces the temperature of amorphous silicon crystallization method manufacture craft lower; The preparation of bar resistor can be adopted lithography stripping (Lifi-off) technology; Realize the hachure preparation easily, do not need extra doping step, technology is simpler.
Higher to present SiPM dark count rate, limited it to the detection of faint optical signal and the making problem of large tracts of land SiPM, the present invention proposes a kind of " interdigital " type Shuangzi SiPM device architecture.Area is less, fully independently sub-SiPM constitutes by 2 to it is characterized in that SiPM, and said 2 sub-SiPM become " interdigital " shapes to arrange.When comprising the faint light pulse of a plurality of photons with one of SiPM measurement (for example a gamma-ray photon is beaten on scintillator, to produce and comprised several fluorescent pulse to hundreds of photons); Because the dark counts of SiPM is the random noise signal that is produced by thermoelectron in the semiconductor silicon material; And contained each photon of light pulse is time correlation, and the pulse signal that they produce almost produces simultaneously.
The present invention proposes a kind of method of new two-way coincidence measurement light signal based on said new construction SiPM.It is characterized in that:
Judge that then said 2 sub-SiPM detect effective light signal during 2 sub-SiPM produce simultaneously pulse signal output that and if only if in a very short time window (for example 50 psec to 500 nanoseconds), and measure and record; What think then if not that said 2 sub-SiPM export respectively is invalid signals such as dark counts or parasitic light, ignores.Because the probability that dark counts appears in 2 sub-SiPM simultaneously in said very short time window greatly reduces, the influence of SiPM dark counts will effectively be cut down, and the area of detector can do more.
