Title :
Optical devices for millimetre-wave transmission
Author_Institution :
BT Labs., Ipswich, UK
Abstract :
The development of practical and high-performance optoelectronic device technology at BT Laboratories (BTL) for millimetre-wave analogue optical links is described. Two-moded lasers (for the transmitter) and heterojunction bipolar phototransistors (for the receiver) are discussed in detail.
