Photodiodes represent a type of photodetectors capable of converting light either into current or voltage. They are relatively similar to regular semiconductor diodes, but they may be routinely exposed to ultraviolet or x-ray light. On the other hand, avalanche diodes work on a reverse voltage bias and experience ava... |
