Abstract
This chapter contains aspects like technology selection and scaling of photodiode performance. Classical PN junction, double-junction photodiodes, finger photodiodes, PIN photodiodes, a spatially modulated light detector, a triple-junction photodetector and avalanches photodiodes in nanometer CMOS are described. A comparison completes this chapter.
