Abstract
We demonstrate an integratable, high linearity (>15 dBm optical power), high bandwidth ((11plusmn1) GHz), polarization insensitive tapered photodetector with a peak responsivity of (0.25plusmn0.03)A/W. The tapered photodiode of this work consists of a lower passive guide for enhanced fiber coupling, with the active absorption region grown on the waveguide surface.
