Abstract: Semiconductor-based avalanche photodiodes (APDs) have the advantages of lower power and simpler fabrication of arrays compared with photomultiplier tubes. It is critical for weak-light imaging that the APD is operated under back illumination and with… read more here.

Abstract: Recently, we have verified an inter-valley scattering free avalanche photodiode (APD) by using GaN/AlN periodically stacked structure (PSS). High linear-mode gain and extremely low excess noise have been achieved in a prototype GaN (10 nm)/… read more here.
