This silicon carbide (SiC) optical sensor showcases wide bandgap properties, selectively responding to ultraviolet (UV) light. Designed as an avalanche photodiode, it's capable of Geiger-mode operation for single-photon detection of UV rays. It features a breakdown voltage of approximately 150V and boasts a rapid recovery with a dead time of under 200ns. The sensor is encapsulated in a TO-5 package for robustness.
