A 46 GHz Bandwidth Monolithic InP/InGaAs PIN/SHBT-Photoreceiver
نویسندگان
چکیده
A InGaAs PIN-photodetector and a lumped SHBT-transimpedance-preamplifier have been mono-lithically integrated and characterized. The preamlifier achieves a transimpedance gain of 44:6 dB (170) and the optical/electrical ?3dB-bandwidth of the entire receiver is 46 GH z. This is, to the best of our knowledge, the highest bandwidth for any HBT based photoreceiver reported to date.
