  • Abstract
    We propose a compact, high-bandwidth optoelectronic S-parameter test structure and characterize its performance via electrooptic sampling over a 500-GHz frequency range. The test structure is shown to be well-behaved over a 300-GHz bandwidth, with further improvement potential. Active devices can be wirebonded into the structure for characterization, or they can be integrated on-wafer for improved performance.<>
