  • Abstract
    The temperature dependence of multiplication noise in silicon avalanche photodiodes with a low-high-low impurity density profile is calculated. The variation of multiplication noise by temperature change can be neglected in practical use at a constant multiplication factor, which is in agreement with experimental results.
