Optically driven switch turn-off time reduced by opaque coatings

Abstract

Turn-off response time of an optically driven switch is reduced by placing an opaque covering over the passivating silicon dioxide members. The coating prevents photon absorption so that carriers are not trapped or stored on the base region, thus shortening turn-off time.
