Both depleted region and undepletedregion are modelled by a capacitor C and a resistor R connected <strong>in</strong> parallel. Depleted andundepleted regions are connected <strong>in</strong> series with a parallel resistor to account <strong>for</strong> the surfacecurrent.Capacitance <strong>of</strong> the depleted region can be determ<strong>in</strong>ed by equationC d = Si 0 Sw = C 0pV0 (3.9)where w is the depletion depth, C 0 = 35 pF is capacitance <strong>of</strong> fully depleted diode andthe dimensionless parameter V 0 = V=V FD is the fraction <strong>of</strong> full depletion voltage, appliedacross the depleted region. Similarly, capacitance <strong>of</strong> the undepleted region is given byC u = Si 0 SW ; w = C 01 ; p V 0 (3.10)where W is the detector thickness.
