Abstract

The first small signal equivalent circuit for a Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode (GMAP) is presented. The equivalent circuit is derived from a 20 μm-diameter GMAP with 3 μm virtual guard ring overlap; the photodetector has peak responsivity at 600 nm and a calculated electrical bandwidth of 5.97 GHz.
