Modelling of High Quantum Efficiency Avalanche Photodiode
A model of a low noise high quantum efficiency n+np Germanium Photodiode utilizing ion implantation technique and subsequent drive-in diffusion in the n layer is presented. Numerical analysis is used to study the influence of junction depth and bulk concentration on the electric field profile and quantum efficiency. The performance of the device is theoretically treated especially at the wave-l...
متن کاملInGaAs/AlGaAsSb avalanche photodiode with high gain-bandwidth product.
Increasing reliance on the Internet places greater and greater demands for high-speed optical communication systems. Increasing their data transfer rate allows more data to be transferred over existing links. With optical receivers being essential to all optical links, bandwidth performance of key components in receivers, such as avalanche photodiodes (APDs), must be improved. The APDs rely on ...
متن کاملdetermination of maximal singularity free zones in the workspace of parallel manipulator
due to the limiting workspace of parallel manipulator and regarding to finding the trajectory planning of singularity free at workspace is difficult, so finding a best solution that can develop a technique to determine the singularity-free zones in the workspace of parallel manipulators is highly important. in this thesis a simple and new technique are presented to determine the maximal singula...
15 صفحه اولLow-temperature performance of a large area avalanche photodiode
A Large Area Avalanche Photodiode was studied, aiming to access its performance as light detector at low temperatures, down to 80 C. The excess noise factor, F ; was measured and found to be approximately independent of the temperature. A linear dependence of F on the APD gain with a slope of 0.0023970.00008 was observed for gains >100. The detection of low intensity light pulses, producing onl...
متن کاملExperimental multi-photon-resolving detector using a single avalanche photodiode
There is an increasing need for identifying the number of photons that is contained within a weak light pulse or time interval of a weak cw light field. A device capable of photon-number resolution would contribute both to fundamental research in the area of quantum optics and to more-or-less practical quantum communication systems, such as quantum key distribution schemes [1]. In the former ca...
