Title :
Analysis of Negative-Resistance Photodiodes
Abstract :
Photodetectors for the detection of microwave-modulated optical radiation have recently received increasing attention. Passive microwave photodiodes (containing no negative resistance or other gain-producing mechanism) have been recently developed and some experimental work has been presented on active parametric photodiodes. An active photodetector is one in which a gain-producing mechanism, such as a negative resistance, appears.
