摘要:
Using InP/InGaAs layers grown by metal organic molecular beam epitaxy (MOMBE) on semi-insulating (SI) InP substrate we have fabricated waveguide-integrated pin-photodiodes working on the principle of evanescent field coupling. A 3 dB cutoff frequency of 9.6 GHz has been found in a 50-OMEGA system. The 100-mu-m long diodes exhibit a capacitance of < 0.1 pF at -5V bias. In addition design criteria are given to improve the speed of the devices.
