Abstract: According to some implementations, an avalanche photodiode may include a photon absorbing layer to absorb photons of an optical beam and to provide a response. The avalanche photodiode may include a gain response layer to provide a gain to the response. The avalanche photodiode may include a bias control structure connected to the gain response layer to control an electric field in the photon absorbing layer and the gain response layer.
