Abstract(in English) The Schottky UV photodetectors were fabricated using a Al_<0.5>Ga_<0.5>N epilayer grown on epitaxial AlN film on sapphire by LP-MOVPE, and their electrical and optical properties were characterized. Responsivity had risen up sharply for 260nm (4.7eV) corresponding with a bandgap of Al_<0.5>Ga_<0.5>N. The responsivity of AlGaN photodetector per unit area at193nm (ArF) increased 16 times compared with that of GaN photodetector and we found that it had high responsivity in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) region. While, by inserting i-AlGaN layer between Schottky contact and n-AlGaN layer, dark current was decreased of 3 orders of magnitude and the responsivity had been improved. From these results, we confirmed that the Schottky UV photodetector based on Al_<0.5>Ga_<0.5>N epilayer is useful for detection in VUV region.
