Temperature Effect on Dark Current Calculator

The temperature effect on dark current is often referred to as thermal excitation. This is because the dark current in photodetectors, such as photodiodes, is often caused by the thermal excitation of carriers. This process depends critically on the temperature and can increase the dark current and is represented as I_da = I_d*2^((T₂-T₁)/10) or Dark Current in raised temperature = Dark Current*2^((Changed Temperature-Previous Temperature)/10). Dark current is the electric current that flows through a photosensitive device, such as a photodetector, even when there is no incident light or photons striking the device, Changed Temperature is a physical quantity that quantitatively expresses the attribute of hotness or coldness & Previous Temperature is a physical quantity that quantitatively expresses the attribute of hotness or coldness.
