APD photodetectors are designed to detect low-level optical signals by using an internal avalanche multiplication mechanism, which amplifies the photocurrent generated by incident photons. This makes them particularly suitable for fiber optic sensing applications, including distributed vibration, temperature, and strain monitoring, where signal levels can be extremely low .
