Linearity and nonlinearity of silicon photodiodes for accurate absolute optical flux measurements: a review
Minoru Tanabe
Abstract:The accurate evaluation of linearity for an Si photodiode (PD) with respect to the incident optical flux is of great importance to determine a highly accurate range for the absolute optical flux that is more than six orders of magnitude. As such, various evaluation methods of linearity and nonlinearity have been proposed, and their feasibilities have been demonstrated. These methods can cover the flux range more than six orders of magnitude and the wavelength regions from ultraviolet to near-infrared, which ar… Show more
