Simulation study of front-illuminated GaN avalanche photodiodes with hole-initiated multiplication

A flip-chip GaN p-i-n-i-n avalanche photodiode (APD) which integrates the merits of the prevailing APDs—hole-initiated multiplication process and front-illumination is proposed and studied via simulation. The simulation parameters used were firstly calibrated with a fabricated PiN diode. With a 200-...
