Abstract(s)

Amorphous Si/SiC photodiodes working as photo-sensing or wavelength sensitive devices have been widely studied. In this paper single and stacked a-SiC:H p-i-n devices, in different geometries and configurations, are reviewed. Several readout techniques, depending on the desired applications (image sensor, color sensor, wavelength division multiplexer/demultiplexer device) are proposed. Physical models are presented and supported by electrical and numerical simulations of the output characteristics of the sensors.
