  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. The developed waveguide photodiode (WGPD) module for CATV link applications consists of a 0.06 /spl mu/m thick GaInAs absorption layer, 3 /spl mu/m thick GaInAsP optical confinement layers, and InP cladding layers so that the optical confinement factor (r) was as low.
