Abstract
A heterostructure avalanche photodiode (HAPD) with an In//0//. //5//3Ga//0//. //4//7As light absorption layer and an InP avalanche multiplication layer was successfully fabricated by a liquid phase epitaxy and a Zn-diffusion technique. This HAPD has yielded an extremely high avalanche gain of 1. 6 multiplied by 10**4 and a dark-current density as low as 1 multiplied by 10** minus **5 A cm** minus **2 at 0. 9 V//B.
