  • Abstract
    Numerical simulation of a guardring-free planar InP/InGaAs avalanche photodiode is presented. The device incorporates p- and n- charge sheets, which spatially separate multiplication layer and p+-region. 2D simulation of the device are performed in cylindrical coordinates. Features of the avalanche photodiode are discussed.
