PHOTOVOLTAIC SERIES
PLANAR IFFUSED SILICON PHOTODIODES
• Colorimeters • Ultra Low Noise
• Photometers • High Shunt Resistance
• Spectroscopy Equipment • Wide Dynamic Range
• Fluorescence • Blue Enhanced
APPLICATIONS FEATURES
The Photovoltaic Detector series is utilized for applications requiring high sen-
sitivity and moderate response speeds, with an additional sensitivity in the
visible-blue region for the blue enhanced series. The spectral response ranges
from 350 to 1 100 nm, making the regular photovoltaic devices ideal for visible
and near IR applications. For additional sensitivity in the 350 nm to 550 nm
region, the blue enhanced devices are more suitable.
These detectors have high shunt resistance and low noise, and exhibit long
term stability. Unbiased operation of these detectors offers stability under
wide temperature variations in DC or low speed applications. For high light
levels (greater than 10mW/cm2), the Photoconductive Series detectors should
be considered for better linearity .
These detectors are not designed to be reverse biased! Very slight improve-
ment in response time may be obtained with a slight bias. Applying a reverse
bias of more than a few volts (>3V) will permanently damage the detectors. If
faster response times are required, the Photoconductive Series should be con-
sidered.
Refer to the Photovoltaic Mode (PV) paragraph in the “Photodiode Character-
istics” section of this catalog for detailed information on electronics set up.
