Abstract: An avalanche photodiode for detecting ultraviolet radiation, including: a silicon carbide body having a first type of conductivity, which is delimited by a front surface and forms a cathode region; an anode region having a second type of conductivity, which extends into the body starting from the front surface and contacts the cathode region; and a guard ring having the second type of conductivity, which extends into the body starting from the front surface and surrounds the anode region.

Abstract: A photodiode structure is based on the use of a double junction sensitive to different wavelength bands based on a magnitude of a reverse bias applied to the photodiode. The monolithic integration of a sensor with double functionality in a single chip allows realization of a low cost ultra-compact sensing element in a single packaging useful in many applications which require simultaneous or spatially synchronized detection of optical photons in different spectral regions.

Abstract: The semiconductor integrated device has a conductive region, for example, an external contact pad, configured to be traversed by a current to be measured. A concentrator of magnetic material partially surrounds the conductive region and has an annular shape open at a point defining an air gap area where a sensitive region is arranged, which is electrically conductive and is typically of doped semiconductor material, such as polycrystalline silicon. The device is integrated in a chip formed by a substrate and by an insulating layer, the sensitive region and the concentrator being formed in the insulating layer.
