Abstract :
A hybrid integrated differential photoreceiver has been successfully fabricated which comprises a dual photodiode (dual-PD) and a high-speed GaAs amplifier integrated circuit (IC) on a planar lightwave circuit (LC) platform with integrated metal-insulation-metal (MIM) structural capacitors by using a novel flip-chip bonding technique. The bandwidth of the photoreceiver is wide enough to receive a 12 Gbit/s Manchester-encoded optical signal
