Abstract :
In the present work, fabrication and characterization of a silicon position sensitive photo-detector PSD (diffused junction) is given. These detectors are good candidate for the use in laser tracking system and in displacement measurement applications. The responsivity, detectivity and rise time of these detectors at the near infrared region (750- 1080) nm were measured and discussed.
