Description

Determination of the ratio of the coefficients of the electrons and holes of the diode structures impact ionization is carried out with the purpose of optimizing the parameters of the avalanche diodes from the cadmium telluride. It is shown experimentally, that the process of the impact ionization in the cadmium telluride is stimulated by holes. The ratio of the coefficients of the holes and electrons impact ionization constitutes ≅ 30-40

Abstract (Russian)

С целью оптимизации параметров лавинных фотодиодов из теллурида кадмия проведено определение отношения коэффициентов ударной ионизации электронов и дырок диодных структур. Экспериментально показано, что процесс ударной ионизации в теллуриде кадмия стимулируется дырками. Отношение коэффициентов ударной ионизации дырок и электронов составляет ≅ 30-40
