Abstract:
The invention relates to a planar photodiode 1 including a detection portion 10 made of a germanium-based material M0, and a peripheral lateral portion 3 including several materials stacked on top of one another, including a material M1 having a coefficient of thermal expansion lower than that of the material M0, and a material M2 having a coefficient of thermal expansion higher than or equal to that of the material M0. The intermediate region 13 includes a portion P1 surrounded by the material M1 and having tensile stresses. It also includes a portion P2 surrounded by the material M2 and having compressive stresses. This portion P2 surrounds a n doped box 12.
