Abstract
Since Fe contamination is easily mixed into Si-based photoelectric materials during the fabrication process, the relative changes of energy levels and photoelectric properties of the Si material mixed with Fe impurities in different occupancy sites are studied. Based on the first-principles and photoelectric response theory, an analysis model of the response characteristics of the Si material mixed with Fe impurities is established. The changes of the material’s electronic structure are calculated, and the effects of different occupancy sites of Fe impurities on the photoelectric response characteristics of materials are comparatively analyzed. The results show that when the Fe atom occupies the tetrahedral interstitial site in Si, the energy band structure and response characteristics of the material are relatively obviously affected. In this case, the impurity energy band introduced by the Fe impurity passes through the Fermi level, leading to the disappearance of the bandgap. The absorption of the Si material outside the response band is significantly enhanced, and a new absorption peak is generated at about 1530 nm, with an absorption coefficient of about

. Thus, the Si material can produce a relatively strong response to the light beam outside the response band. In the meantime, the saturation threshold of the Si-based photoreceptor is significantly lower than that of the other two position types. For the irradiation light at the wavelength of 1319 nm, the saturation power is only
