Measurement of intermodulation distortion in high-linearity photodiodes.
Accurately characterizing third order intermodulation distortion (IMD3) in high-linearity photodiodes is challenging. Two measurement techniques are evaluated-a standard two-tone measurement and a more complicated three-tone measurement technique to measure IMD3. A model of the measurement system is developed and used to analyze the limitations of the two techniques in determining the distortio...
متن کاملAvalanche Photodiodes in High-Speed Receiver Systems
The avalanche photodiode (APD) is widely used in optical fibre communications (Campbell, 2007) due to its ability to achieve high internal gain at relatively high speeds and low excess noise (Wei et al., 2002), thus improving the system signal-to-noise ratio. Its internal mechanism of gain or avalanche multiplication is a result of successive impact ionisation events. In an optical receiver sys...
متن کاملPhoton-trapping microstructures enable high-speed high-efficiency silicon photodiodes
High-speed, high-efficiency photodetectors play an important role in optical communication links that are increasingly being used in data centres to handle higher volumes of data traffic and higher bandwidths, as big data and cloud computing continue to grow exponentially. Monolithic integration of optical components with signal-processing electronics on a single silicon chip is of paramount im...
متن کاملHigh-speed photodiodes in 40 nm standard CMOS technology
This work investigates two silicon (Si) photodiodes (PDs) fabricated in 40 nm standard CMOS technology. The basic structure of the proposed Si PD is formed by N+/P-substrate and N-well/P-substrate diodes. The N+/P-substrate PD demonstrates a responsivity of 0.09 A/W and an electrical bandwidth of 3 GHz for 8 V reverse bias at 520 nm. The N-well/P-substrate PD demonstrates a responsivity of 0.24...
متن کاملHigh-speed photodiodes for InP-based photonic integrated circuits.
We demonstrate the feasibility of monolithic integration of evanescently coupled Uni-Traveling Carrier Photodiodes (UTC-PDs) having a bandwidth exceeding 100 GHz with Multimode Interference (MMI) couplers. This platform is suitable for active-passive, butt-joint monolithic integration with various Multiple Quantum Well (MQW) devices for narrow linewidth millimeter-wave photomixing sources. The ...
