4Avalanche effect — Der Lawinendurchbruch, auch Avalanche Durchbruch genannt, ist eine der drei Durchbruchsarten bei Halbleiterbauelementen. Unter einem Durchbruch eines p n Übergangs versteht man den steilen Anstieg des Stroms bei einer bestimmten Sperrspannung,… …
5Avalanche breakdown — is a phenomenon that can occur in both insulating and semiconducting materials. It is a form of electric current multiplication that can allow very large currents to flow within materials which are otherwise good insulators. Explanation Avalanche …
6Avalanche photodiode — Avalanche photodiodes (APDs) are photodetectors that can be regarded as the semiconductor analog to photomultipliers. By applying a high reverse bias voltage (typically 100 200 V in silicon), APDs show an internal current gain effect (around 100) …
