Is there a photodiode that is tuned to detect 532nm visible laser light?

Subject says it all really - all I can find are IR photodiodes.

Thanks,

Sorry maybe I wasn't clear on that - I don't really need one that is
tuned - just one that reacts to visible light, all the photodiodes I
see are IR devices.

Try a silicon pin diode. They have a spectral response from near IR to
around 350nm or so.

Those in clear packages should respond to visible light.

those in dark packages are filtered against visible light.
