摘要：
photodiode and avalanche photodiodes (SiAPDs) are addressed to develop a miniaturized near-infrared photosensor with high-sensitivity, low-power and low-noise characteristics using CMOS technology dedicated to biomedical imaging applications. These devices have been characterized and compared using different device simulators include COMSOL, TCAD, MATLAB, Crosslight-APSYS and Silvaco. The impact of simulation and reliability of the simulation results are evaluated by considering the measurement results. The sources of observed discrepancies between simulated and measured characteristics are discussed. Then a reliable technique to use device simulators and photosensor modeling results, is proposed based on our previous design, simulation and fabrication experiences. A new equivalent circuit model for SiAPD is also developed to be applied in circuit level simulations.
