Abstract :
High-frequency measurement and the extraction of an extended small-signal equivalent circuit of a heterostructure InP-based photodiode in the frequency range of 45 MHz to 100 GHz was performed. Photodetectors of this type were monolithically integrated and successfully fabricated to form twin-type photodetector OEICs. The work describes the small-signal equivalent circuit of photodiodes with various active areas and layer stacks up to the frequency range of 100 GHz.
