Abstract
A photodetector comprising a P-type, a N-type, an intrinsic layer, a first electrode corresponding to the P-type, a second electrode corresponding to the N-type, and a dielectric layer in such a way that the intrinsic layer is disposed between the P-type and the N-type for forming a diode and the dielectric layer is provided between the P-type and the first electrode (or between the N-type and the second electrode) for configuring a dielectric capacitor. By parallel connecting effective capacitor of reverse-biased diode and dielectric capacitor, the photodetector is capable of providing greatly increased capacitance. The operating modes involve charging the dielectric capacitor before subjecting the photodetector to photons for detecting signals.
