Abstract
The paper investigates the theory about indirect coupling photodetection, and points out severe mistakes in its theoretical basis. Experiments show that, excluding the output current created by photo-generated carriers directly diffusing to the output junction, and applying the constant photo-generated voltage across the illuminated open-circuit PN junction, the output current of indirect coupling photodetector approaches the dark current of the output junction, which indicates that the injection current of the illuminated open-circuit PN junction is hard to be extracted.
