UV-enhanced planar diffused silicon (Si) photodiodes

OSI OPTOELECTRONICS UV-enhanced planar diffused silicon photodiodes are specially designed for low-light-level detection in the ultraviolet spectral range. Product series includes the UVD planar diffused and UVE planar diffused IR suppressed devices, both featuring excellent UV response. UVD photodiodes peak at 970nm, while the UVE devices peak at 720nm and suppress the near-infrared, making them particularly useful in applications where blocking the NIR spectral region is required. Both products can be biased for lower capacitance, wider dynamic range, and high speed response times.
