UV-100DQ
Inversion Layer and Planar Diffused Silicon Photodiodes
OSI Optoelectronics offers two distinct families of UV enhanced silicon photodiodes. Inversion channel series and planar diffused series. Both families of devices are especially designed for low noise detection in the UV region of electromagnetic spectrum.
Inversion layer structure UV enhanced photodiodes exhibit 100% internal quantum efficiency and are well suited for low intensity light measurements. They have high shunt resistance, low noise and high breakdown voltages. The response uniformity across the surface and quantum efficiency improves with 5 to 10 volts applied reverse bias. In photovoltaic mode (unbiased), the capacitance is higher than diffused devices but decreases rapidly with an applied reverse bias. Photocurrent non-linearity sets in at lower photocurrents for inversion layer devices compared to the diffused ones. Below 700nm, their responsivities vary little with temperature.
