摘要
Low-temperature-grown GaAs (LT-GaAs)-based Fabry-Perot cavity photoconductors, designed for RF and THz optoelectronics applications using1550 nm lasers, are studied. The sub-sampling of continuous waves at frequencies up to 300 GHz is presented. The duty-cycle-limited conversion losses measured up to 67 GHz show that this GaAs-based photoconductor behaves as a nearly perfect photoswitch controlled by a 1550 nm pulsed laser.
