  • Abstract
    A common epitaxial layer structure is proposed for a uni-travelling-carrier photodiode and a heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) for which zinc indiffusion is used on the HBT base-collector junctions to complete the photodiode structure. Fabricated photodiodes show 3 dB bandwidths of between 60 and 80 GHz for output voltages between 1 and 2 V
