Optimization of the UTC-PD Epitaxy for Photomixing at 340 GHz
We present a method to optimize the epitaxial layer structure of an InGaAs/InP uni-traveling-carrier photo-diode (UTC-PD) for continuous THz-wave generation. The design approach used is general in that it can be applied for any target frequency while this study focuses on 340 GHz. The photodiode epitaxy is modeled and optimized using a TCAD software implementing the hydrodynamic semiconductor e...
متن کاملElectric-field and space-charge distributions in InAs/GaAs quantum-dot infrared photodetectors: ensemble Monte Carlo particle modeling
We proposed a simplified quasi-three-dimensional model for nonequilibrium electron transport in quantum dot infrared photodetectors (QDIPs) based on an ensemble Monte Carlo particle method. Invoking the developed model, we calculated the electric-field and spacecharge distributions, in InAs/GaAs and InGaAs/GaAs QDIPs. q 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

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 ...
متن کاملInP-based waveguide photodiodes heterogeneously integrated on silicon-on-insulator for photonic microwave generation.
High-linearity modified uni-traveling carrier photodiodes on silicon-on-insulator with low AM-to-PM conversion factor are demonstrated. The devices deliver more than 2.5 dBm RF output power up to 40 GHz and have an output third order intercept point of 30 dBm at 20 GHz. Photodiode arrays exceed a saturation current-bandwidth-product of 630 mA · GHz and reach unsaturated RF output power levels o...

A high performance InP/InGaAs SHBT technology will be presented. InP SHBT is advantageous in terms of low-cost monolithic integration with photodiodes for high-speed optical receiver frontend applications. We will demonstrate that, through optimized CAD geometries, the fabricated HBTs showed uniform and improved device performance. Our best results show that an fT of over 160 GHz and fmax of gr...
