Abstract
According to the present invention, techniques related generally to a photodiode device configured to be receptive to a near ultraviolet (UV-C) emission wavelength range. This wavelength range is specifically designed to be immune to background radiation produced by the Sun, rendering the communication device Solar Blind, and immune to other similar forms of interference. In particular, the present invention provides a light receiving and sensing system using various compositional Al, Ga, Sc, and N solid state materials to detect and measure radiation with a high degree of fidelity. This invention has numerous applications not only in detection and sensing technologies, but also measurement, communication, navigation, and other related aspects.
