What is the best photodiode for UV measurement?

The best photodiode for UV measurement depends on the wavelength range, responsivity target and operating environment, but AP Technologies offers UV-enhanced silicon photodiodes specifically for this sort of work. Its silicon photodiode range includes UVG-Series UV-enhanced detectors as well as other visible, NIR and specialist options, so users can select a detector that matches the actual spectrum instead of forcing a general-purpose part to do a specialist job. The support pages also cover photodiode theory, operating circuits and handling precautions, which helps when you need accurate UV measurements rather than just nominal detection. For demanding UV applications, starting with a UV-optimised detector is usually the sensible route.
