semiconductor diode			PN diode has too small depletion region which makes the received optical power must be fairly high to generate sufficient current. How to Design a High Performance Optical Receiver? by Colin Yao / Computers and Internet community These results clearly show that the "deeper" one goes into the depletion region, the worse (i. Controlling particle dispersion in latex paints containing ... by Kostansek, Edward / JCT Research Assuming that this deviation was due to the presence of charged deep-level recombination centers in the depletion region and of opposite polarity from the regular space charge, a value for deep-level states were calculated as 1.
