| Term (EN) | avalanche photodiode, APD (acronym) |
| Definition (EN) | A photodiode operating with a bias voltage such that the primary photocurrent undergoes amplification by cumulative multiplication of charge carriers.
Note. — As the reverse-bias voltage approaches the breakdown voltage, hole-electron pairs created by absorbed photons acquire sufficient energy to create additional hole-electron pairs when they collide with ions. |

| Term (SR) | lavinska fotodioda, APD (skraćenica) |
| Definition (SR) | Fotodioda koja radi sa prednaponom takvim da primarna foto struja biva pojačana usljed kumulativnog množenja nosilaca naelektrisanja
Napomena — Kako se obrnuti prednapon približava probojnom naponu, parovi šupljina-elektron nastali od apsorbovanih fotona prikupljaju dovoljno energije da stvore još parova šupljina-elektron kad se sudaraju s jonima. |
