Abstract
For the interference fringes' photodiode detection, its SNR can be improved by two ways to a great extent, one is space arrangement of photodiodes, another is that photodiode operates without external reverse voltage. Despite application of reverse voltage to photodiode is very useful in improving linearity and high frequency, it has the accompanying disadvantage of increasing dark current and noise levels along with the danger of damaging the device by excessive applied reverse voltage. In order to keep the high SNR and high frequency response of photodiode, we analyze the relation between movement frequency and photoelectric conversion of interference fringes when space arrangement of photodiodes are designed as a kind of high SNR detection method proposed in our previous article and photodiode operates in no reverse voltage state. On basis of the analysis, a combinative amplifier of DC (direct current) and AC (alternative current) is present to amplify the photoelectric difference signal. The input and feedback resistance of the amplifier are all replaced by the resistance and capacitance in parallel connection. When this amplifier is compared to the common one, it can greatly broaden the frequency response range of fringe signal and ensure the instrument can work normally at low and high frequency.
