Jonathan Taylor-Mew's repository contains data and figures for the manuscript 'Planar InAs avalanche photodiode with high gain and low noise factor' submitted to Optics Express. The 19.1 MB repository includes CSV data files and PNG graphical figures required to replicate the manuscript's results. The data was last updated on April 9, 2026.

Use Cases

• Replicate experimental figures from the manuscript based on the provided CSV data.
• Analyze the relationship between gain and excess noise factor in planar InAs APDs based on the described characterization.
• Compare the performance of InAs and HgCdTe avalanche photodiodes for infrared applications based on the reported metrics.
• Validate simulation models for avalanche photodiode behavior using the provided experimental data.

Strengths

• Data is directly linked to a peer-reviewed manuscript submitted to Optics Express, providing academic context.
• Includes both raw data (CSV) and graphical figures (PNG) for full reproducibility.
• Released under a CC-BY-4.0 license, permitting open reuse with attribution.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
