Abstract :
The integration of two waveguide integrated photodetectors with an optical 3 dB power splitter, a spot size converter and a quasi-differential output port is demonstrated. This integrated differential photoreceiver is best suited for high-power 40 Gbit/s detection and optimized electrical rf-packaging
