Abstract

The electrical properties of photodiodes based on silicon-on-sapphire structures are investigated theoretically and experimentally. It is shown that they are no worse than silicon diodes in terms of their basic parameters, while their radiation hardness is higher by an order of magnitude than that of similar diodes based on bulk silicon.
