In a positive-intrinsic-negative (PIN) diode, an intrinsic (non-doped) semiconductor is sandwiched between the positively and negatively doped semiconductor regions. This arrangement results in a large electrical field in the I region which increases the zone where photons can free charges and reduces the charge transit time. The maximum rate of light fluctuations that a PIN diode can track is limited by the transit time of charges to about 20 GHz [gigahertz]. 3, record 1, English, - charge%20transit%20time
