Abstract :
Resonant cavity photodetectors at 1.53 mu m are demonstrated using the epitaxial liftoff technique to position an epilayer structure between two metallic mirrors. The epilayer consists of a p-i-n structure with quantum wells placed strategically at the antinodes of the fabricated cavity. The quality factor of the 1.16 mu m long cavity is 59 corresponding to mirror reflectivies of 94 and 90%.
