8 × 8 GaN Schottky barrier photodiode arrayfor visible-blind imaging

Abstract
The fabrication and characterisation of an 8 × 8 Schottky barrier photodiode array on GaN, with pixel size of 200 × 200 µm, are reported. This array shows an average peak response of 0.05 A/W and sharp cutoff at 360 nm. Decay time measurements reveal the response to be RC-limited with a time constant of 50 ns. The visible-blind UV-imaging capability of the GaN photodiode array is also demonstrated for the first time.
