Abstract

In this paper, we report the experimental data of photoresponse namely; voltage responsivity and speed of response at λ = 904 nm of silicon photodiode formed by pulsed laser-induced diffusion technique. Experimental results demonstrated that the photodiode parameters strongly depend on the laser energy and substrate temperature. Maximum Responsivity obtained for p-n junctions photodetectors prepared by laser fluence of 9.17 J/cm2 for Al-doped Si and 10.03 J/cm2 for Sb-doped Si at substrate temperature (Ts) of 598 K. The pulse response waveform of photodetectors illustrated that the rise time is not dominated by RC. Non-linearity deviation coefficient was improved by factors 1.6 for and 2.7 for for Al-doped Si and Sb-doped Si photodetectors respectively when Ts is raised from 300 K to 598 K.
