Abstract :
The impulse responses of very-high-speed photodiodes are determined using 5¿15 ps pulses from optically pumped ultrashort-cavity film lasers operating between wavelengths of 1.15 ¿m and 1.54 ¿m. The measured response time (FWHM) for a back-illuminated InGaAs/InP punch-through PIN photodiode is 30 Ps.
