PIN and APD photodetector efficiencies in the longer wavelength range 1300-1550 nm
In this report, a performance comparison of the conventional PIN photodiode with the Avalanche Photodiode (APD) in an optical communication system at longer wavelengths is presented. The effects of shot noise and thermal noise are compared and studied in detail. It was shown that the Q-factor of the...
