Abstract: An array of mesa photodiodes, including a useful layer of CdxHg1-xTe wherein pads are formed. The array includes a first doped zone having a first N or P doping; and second doped zones having a second P or N doping of a different type from that of the first doping, and each extending on an upper region of a pad. The first doped zone includes at least one first region having a first doping density, located at least under each of the pads; and at least one second region, located between two neighboring pads, and having a second doping density higher than the first doping density, each second region being separated from the closest second doped zone by at least one portion of the first region.

Abstract: A device includes a substrate carrying an array of diodes, organized in rows and columns, and a peripheral substrate contact is arranged on at least one side of the array. The substrate includes one or more buried conducting lines electrically connected to the peripheral substrate contact and being positioned between at least two neighboring columns of diodes and/or between at least two neighboring rows of diodes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device comprising a substrate supporting a matrix of diodes organized in rows and columns, and a peripheral substrate contact is arranged on at least one side of the matrix, characterized in that the substrate comprises one or several buried conducting lines having no direct electrical connection with the peripheral substrate contact and being positioned between at least two adjacent columns of diodes and between at least two adjacent rows of diodes.
