Light emission from a p-n diode biased in controlled avalanche breakdown has been measured over the photon energy range 1.4–3.4 eV. Previously published models are compared with measured data to associate specific mechanisms with avalanche photon emission in silicon. A multimechanism model fitting the measured spectrum is presented.
