  • Abstract
    An InP/InGaAs uni-travelling-carrier photodiode with a record 3 dB bandwidth of 220 GHz at a wavelength of 1.55 μm has been fabricated. The estimated average electron velocity in the depletion region is >2.3×107 cm/s, which indicates that nonequilibrium electron transport is taking place in the collection layer
