Abstract :
The authors report on the optical responses of a p-channel In0.49Ga0.51P/GaAs/In0.13Ga0.87 As pseudomorphic MODFET with a gate length of 1 μm. The photocurrent of the device is -0.36 mA at Vgs=-0.2 V and V ds=-3.5 V, with incident optical power of 2.15 mW. A significantly high responsivity was obtained at low incident optical power range. Current gain cut-off frequency and maximum available gain cut-off frequency were increased by 20 and 10%, respectively, under optical illumination
