    avalanche multiplication
    avalanche multiplication: A current-multiplying phenomenon that occurs in a semiconductor photodiode
    that is reverse-biased just below its breakdown voltage. Note: Under such a condition, photocurrent carriers,
    i.e. , electrons, are swept across the junction with sufficient energy to ionize additional bonds, creating
    additional electron-hole pairs in a regenerative action. [After FAA]
