Abstract

A high-quality photodiode has high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), which is ultimately defined by the responsivity and dark current of the photodiode. Black silicon induced junction photodiodes have been shown to have nearly ideal responsivity across a wide range of wavelengths between 175-1100 nm at room temperature (RT). Here we present their spectral responsivity stability and dark current at different temperatures. Both quantities show temperature dependencies similar to conventional pn-junction photodiodes, proving that black silicon photodiodes maintain their improved SNR also at temperatures other than RT.
