Popis: The spatial nonuniformity of negative luminescence and current crowding in InAsSb(P) mid-IR photodiodes is analyzed in relation to the applied voltage and contact size values. It is shown that this non-uniformity is one of the main causes of the poor sensitivity of photodiodes which have low dynamic resistance at zero bias and which operate in the photocurrent mode.
