Monte Carlo Simulation of Photoresponse in Silicon Photodiodes with <i>p-n</i>-Junction and <i>p-i-n</i>-Structure by A. V. Borzdov, V. M. Borzdov, D. N. Buinouski, A. N. Petlitsky

“…Photoresponse in silicon submicron photodiodes with a p-n-junction and photodiodes with a p-i-n-structure was calculated for different thicknesses of the undoped i-region. It was shown that use of simple models similar to the Keldysh model with constant values of the threshold energy and other parameters for calculating the rate of the impact ionization process did not allow obtaining values of the ionization coefficient matched with experimental data in a wide range of electric field strengths. …”
