Abstract

Black silicon induced junction photodiodes have nearly ideal responsivity across a wide range of wavelengths between 175-1100 nm, with external quantum efficiency over 99 % at visible wavelengths, when a single spot is measured using light beam between 1 to 2mm in diameter. The spatial uniformity of responsivity is also an important characteristic of a high-quality photodiode, when considering its usage as a reference in photometry. We study here the spatial uniformity of responsivity of large area (8mmx8mm) black silicon photodiodes at 405 nm wavelength. Our results show that the spatial non-uniformity is less than 0.5 % over 90 % of the surface area, and thus the photodiodes meet the thigh criteria typically set for reference standards and are hence suitable for such application.
