  • Abstract
    The authors have fabricated an InP-InGaAs uni-travelling-carrier photodiode that exhibits a 3 dB bandwidth of 310 GHz and a pulse width (FWHM) of 0.97ps. Both of which are record values for photodetectors operating at a wavelength of 1.55 μm. The average electron velocity in the depletion region is estimated to be 3.0×107 cm/s
