Ppt on photodiode

Analog Electronics ppt on Photo Diodes and LED by Being topper. Defination operation materials characteristics types uses applications references. Laser range finders fast receiver modules for data . Excellent linearity with respect to incident light . In Photoconductive mode the saturation current increases in proportion to the intensity of the received light.

This type of diode is used in CD .

Avalanche photodiodes are commonly used as detectors for low energy x-rays.

The use of this technique in an improvement of the energy resolution . Diode detector (P- type, N-type) 3. Thermal fluctuations: often an important source of noise in electronic circuits, e. Quantum noise: often important in optical devices, e. Know various optical detectors like photodiodes , p-i-n diodes and avalanche diodes. Define figures of merit of the detectors. Know about different sources of noise in detectors and the significance of signal to noise ratio.

The introduction of multichannel detectors such as the linear photodiode array (PDA), charge coupled device ( CCD) and vidicon enabled new detection systems to be developed for UV-Vis spectrophotometers and encouraged the rapid development of polychromators from the. Silicon photodiodes are semiconductor devices responsive to high- energy particles and photons. Components of PL-Based Sensors: Excitation source: lasers, inorganic LEDs, lamps. Sensing element: a porous film with an embedded luminescent dye, surface immobilized.
