Effect of avalanche build-up time on avalanche photodiode sensitivity
Journal Article
·
· IEEE J. Quant. Electron.; (United States)
A calculation method for the receiver sensitivity of an avalanche photodiode is considered, taking into account avalanche build-up time and carrier transit time, in addition to the CR time constant. Actual receiver performance is estimated in a high data rate region of up to 10 Gbits/s for germanium avalanche photodiodes, applying the measured avalanche build-up time.
