Abstract :
We demonstrate two high-performance photonic-transmitters based on uni-traveling-carrier-photodiode (UTC-PD) and separated-transport-recombination-photodiode (STR-PD). Thanks to recombination center, STR-PD exhibits comparable maximum-peak-power and electrical pulse-width with much smaller photocurrents and less serious device-heating to those of UTC-PD.
