ABSTRACT:
A photodiode with a semiconductor intrinsic light absorption layer has at least one p-doped light absorption layer or an n-doped light absorption layer, and preferably both. The diode also has a cathode electrode and an anode electrode electrically coupled with the p-doped light absorption layer or the n-doped light absorption layer.
