  • Abstract
    We present a novel MSM (metal-semiconductor-metal) based tunable photodetector for discrimination between two wavelengths with a 365 GHz channel spacing. If integrated with CMOS circuits, this photodetector has the potential to perform high-speed channel switching in WDM-based systems.
