Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of photoelectric technology, in particular to a method for testing an avalanche photodiode and an avalanche photodiode test device for implementing the method. Background technique [0002] The avalanche photodiode is a p-n junction photodetection diode, in which the avalanche multiplication effect of carriers is used to amplify the photoelectric signal to improve the detection sensitivity. Its basic structure often adopts the Read diode structure that is prone to avalanche multiplication effect (that is, N+PIP+ type structure, P+ side receives light), and a large reverse bias is added during operation to make it reach the state of avalanche multiplication; its light absorption The area is basically the same as the multiplication area (there are P area and I area with high electric field). [0003] The traditional method of testing the reverse breakdown voltage of an avalanche photodiode is to gradually increase the ...
