Unlike many similar works, the obtained data refer to commercial photodiodes (not only to detector materials). The main task of the research was to determine the influence of the operating temperature and annealing on the detector spectral responsiveness. A comparison of the results obtained for the photodiodes made of GaN and SiC was also performed. Although both kinds of detectors can work at high temperatures for a long time, some modification of their properties was observed. However, for GaN and SiC photodiodes, this modification has a substantially different nature. It is very important for some applications, e.g. fire alarms and a military equipment.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Comparative Tests of Temperature Effects on the Performance of Gan and Sic Photodiodes}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/90307/PDF/Journal10178-VolumeXXII%20Issue1_11.pdf}, doi={10.1515/mms-2015-0010}, keywords={optical detectors, UV radiation, photodiode, GaN detector, SiC detector}, }
