Experimental identification of defect-induced destructive breakdown of AlGaN ultraviolet avalanche photodiodes

The issue of destructive breakdown and high dark current in AlGaN ultraviolet avalanche photodiodes has conventionally been attributed to material defects, yet direct evidence supporting this claim has been absent. Examining damaged devices that experienced destructive breakdown revealed an intrigui...
