Exelitas‘ series of high-performance, rear-entry, “reach-through” silicon avalanche photodiodes (APDs) offer the best compromise in terms of cost and performance for applications requiring high-speed and low-noise photon detection from 400 nm up to 1100 nm.
These Silicon APDs feature low noise, high quantum efficiency and high gain while maintaining reasonably low operating voltage. The active area varies from 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm.
C30817EH: This silicon avalanche photodiode for general-purpose applications is designed using a double-diffused “reach through” structure. This structure provides high responsivity between 400 to 1100 nm, as well as fast rise and fall times at all wavelengths. Since the fall time characteristics has no “tail”, the responsivity of the device is independent of modulation frequency up to about 200 MHz.
C30884EH: This silicon avalanche photodiode (Si APD) offers very high modulation capability with high responsivity and fast rise and fall times. Because the fall time characteristic has no “tail”, the responsivity of the device is independent of modulation frequency up to about 400 MHz. This Si APD is made using a double-diffused “reach-through” structure and is optimized for high responsivity at wavelengths of below 1000 nm.
C30902BH: High-performance silicon avalanche photodiode (Si APD) with 0.5 mm active area diameter. Suitable for biomedical and analytical applications, this Si APD is designed with a double-diffused “reach-through” structure to provide high responsivity between 400 and 1000 nm as well as extremely fast rise and fall times at all wavelengths.
