The G10899 series is an InGaAs PIN photodiode that covers a wide spectral response range from 0.5 m to 1.7 m. While standard InGaAs PIN photodiodes have spectral response ranging from 0.9 m to 1.7 m, the G10899 series has sensitivity extending to 0.5 m on the shorter wavelength side. A wide spectral range can be detected with a single detector.

Two-color detectors
Two-color detectors use a combination of two light sensors with different spectral response, in which one sensor is mounted
over the other sensor along the same optical axis to provide a broad spectral response range. As the combination of two light
sensors, an infrared-transmitting Si photodiode and an InGaAs PIN photodiode (standard type or long wavelength type) or an infrared-transmitting InGaAs PIN photodiode (standard type) and an InGaAs PIN photodiode (long wavelength type) are available.
Thermoelectrically cooled two-color detectors are also provided that cool the sensors to maintain their temperatures constant,
allowing high precision measurement with an improved S/N.

Description of terms
Spectral response
Terminal capacitance: Ct
Photosensitivity: S
The ratio of photocurrent expressed in amperes (A) or output
voltage expressed in volts (V) to the incident light level expressed
in watts (W). Photosensitivity is represented as an absolute
sensitivity (A/W or V/W) or as a relative sensitivity (%) to the
peak wavelength sensitivity normalized to 100. We usually define
the spectral response range as the range in which the relative
sensitivity is higher than 5% or 10% of the peak sensitivity.
Quantum efficiency: QE
This is the number of electrons or holes that can be extracted
as photocurrent divided by the number of incident photons.
It is commonly expressed in percent (%). The quantum
efficiency QE and photosensitivity S (unit: A/W) have the
following relationship at a given wavelength (unit: nm).
Rise time: tr
The rise time is the time required for the output to rise from
10% to 90% of the maximum output value (steady-state
value) in response to input of step-function light.
Cutoff frequency: fc
This is the measure used to evaluate the time response of
high-speed PIN photodiodes to a sinewave-modulated light
input. It is defined as the frequency at which the photodiode
output decreases by 3 dB from the output at 100 kHz. The
light source used is a laser diode (1.3 m or 1,55 m) and the
load resistance is 50 . The rise time tr has a relation with
the cutoff frequency fc as follows:
tr [s]=
Short circuit current: Isc
This is the output current that flows in a photodiode when
load resistance is zero. This is called "white light sensitivity"
to differentiate it from the spectral response, and is
measured with light from a standard tungsten lamp at 2856
K distribution temperature (color temperature). Our product
catalog lists the short circuit current measured under an
illuminance of 100 lx.
0.35
fc [Hz]
Cutoff wavelength: c
This represents the long wavelength limit of spectral
response and in datasheets is listed as the wavelength at
which the sensitivity becomes 10% of the value at the peak
sensitivity wavelength.
Dark current: ID
A small current which flows when a reverse voltage is applied
to a photodiode even in a dark state. This current is called
the dark current. Noise resulting from dark current becomes
dominant when a reverse voltage is applied to photodiodes (PIN
photodiodes, etc.).

Disclaimer
Products manufactured by Hamamatsu Photonics K.K. (hereafter Hamamatsu) are intended for use in general-use electronic
devices (such as measurement equipment, office equipment, information communications equipment, household appliances,
etc.). Unless an exception to the following is stated in the documentation of a specific product, Hamamatsu products are not to
be used for special applications which demand extremely high reliability or safety (such as equipment for nuclear power control,
aerospace equipment, medical equipment and transportation equipment that directly affect human life, or disaster prevention or
safety equipment).
Hamamatsu products should not be used in excess of their absolute maximum ratings. Attention must be paid to all documented
precautions.
Hamamatsu continually makes efforts to improve the quality and reliability of its products; however these efforts cannot ensure
100% compliance with the manufacturing specifications. Sufficient safety design (such as redundant safety, fire preventative, and
malfunction preventative features) are to be implemented in the development of equipment manufactured with the Hamamatsu
product so that personal injury, fire, or damage to public property or welfare does not occur in the unlikely event of a malfunction
of the Hamamatsu product. A dangerous condition could be created if sufficient consideration is not given to safety design that
addresses potential problems, especially in the design of equipment where the failure or malfunction of the Hamamatsu product
within the equipment could result in bodily harm, life-threatening injury, or serious property damage during the use of the
equipment. With such types of equipment, Hamamatsu shall not be responsible for the use of its products within the equipment in
any way for not obtaining our written consent such as specification sheets beforehand.
Appropriate descriptions of the functions, performance, and methods of operation of the Hamamatsu product and the equipment
within which the Hamamatsu product is incorporated are to be provided to end-users of the equipment. All accompanying
warnings and cautionary labeling are also to be provided to the end-user.
Warranty of the Hamamatsu product is limited to the repair or replacement of a product in which a defect is discovered within 1
year of delivery of the product and notification is made to Hamamatsu within that period, otherwise certain warranty is specified.
However, even within the warranty period Hamamatsu shall not be responsible for damages caused by either natural disaster or
improper use of the product (such as modification of the product or any use that contravenes the operating conditions, intended
applications, operating instructions, storage method, disposal method, or any other term or condition described in our products
documents). For a complete description of the warranty associated with a particular product, please contact your regional
Hamamatsu sales office.
Exportation of some Hamamatsu products must comply with individual governmental regulations pertaining to export control.
Export in contravention of governmental regulations is a crime and can result in severe monetary penalties or imprisonment.
While we cannot give any legal advice as to how to comply with these regulations, we can help classify the goods in order
to assist the buyer in determining what regulations apply. Please contact your regional Hamamatsu sales office for further
assistance.
In our products documents, applications are mentioned as notable examples of how the Hamamatsu product can be used. Such
mentions guarantee neither the suitability of the product for specific purposes nor the success or failure of the commercial use
of the product in specific applications. Some applications may be protected by patents or other proprietary rights. Hamamatsu
assumes no liability for any infringing use of our products. All warranties express or implied, including any warranty of
merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose are hereby excluded.
