Abstract :
An AlGaAs/GaAs waveguide is coupled to an InGaAs pin photodetector by a total internal reflector, polyimide process, and a microwave ground-signal-ground coplanar waveguide. This monolithic module achieved 10 GHz 3 dB bandwidth and is suitable for 10 Gbit/s data transmission of optical interconnections.
