Abstract :
We report the monolithic integration of a building block, a waveguide-fed photoreceiver, comprising a semiconductor waveguide, a PIN photodiode, and a 3 stage low noise preamplifier, based on 0.5 μm gate length high performance HFETs. Internal sensitivities better than -27dBm at 2.5Gbit/s and -25dBm at 5Gbit/s have been measured
