Silicon Avalanche Photodiodes make use of internal multiplication to achieve gain due to impact ionization. The result is the optimized series of high Responsivity devices, exhibiting excellent sensitivity. OSI Optoelectronics offers several sizes of detectors that are available with flat windows or ball lenses for optical fiber applications.
