20100133636 | SINGLE PHOTON DETECTOR AND ASSOCIATED METHODS FOR MAKING THE SAME - A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, a photon avalanche detector in the semiconductor substrate. The photon avalanche detector includes an anode of a first conductivity type and a cathode of a second conductivity type. A guard ring is in the semiconductor substrate and at least partially surrounds the photon avalanche detector. A passivation layer of the first conductivity type is in contact with the guard ring to reduce an electric field at an edge of the photon avalanche detector. | 06-03-2010 |

20120248295 | PHOTODETECTOR - A photodetector disclosed herein comprises an avalanche transistor having a reference junction structure in which temperature characteristics of a current amplification factor are about the same as those of an avalanche photodiode and which is reverse-biased, and a current injection junction structure which injects a reference current to the reference junction structure and which is forward-biased. Voltages to be applied to the avalanche photodiode and the reference junction structure are controlled so that the amplification factor of the reference current amplified in the reference junction structure is retained at a predetermined value, whereby the temperature characteristics of the photodetector utilizing an avalanche effect can be stabilized. | 10-04-2012 |
20140103196 | LIGHT DETECTOR - There is provided a light detector having a light-receiving unit including a light-receiving element of a photon-counting type that receives incident light and outputs a binary pulse indicating presence or absence of photon incidence, and an integrating unit that calculates an output value in which a total of pulse widths of pulses is integrated over a measurement period. | 04-17-2014 |

20150054111 | SINGLE PHOTON AVALANCHE DIODE - A first semiconductor layer serves as a first implanted layer of a first conductivity type. A second semiconductor layer of a second conductivity type is provided under the first semiconductor layer. The second conductivity type is opposite to the first conductivity type. The second semiconductor layer is buried in an epitaxial layer grown above a substrate. The second semiconductor layer becomes fully depleted when an appropriate bias voltage is applied to the device. | 02-26-2015 |
