摘要
The design,manufacturing and DC and microwave characterization of high-power Schottky barrier In Al As/In Ga As back-illuminated mesa structure photodiodes are presented.The photodiodes with 10 and 15μm mesa diameters operate at≥40 and 28 GHz,respectively,have the output RF power as high as 58 m W at a frequency of 20 GHz,the DC responsivity of up to 1.08 A/W depending on the absorbing layer thickness,and a photodiode dark current as low as 0.04 n A.We show that these photodiodes provide an advantage in the amplitude-to-phase conversion factor which makes them suitable for use in highspeed analog transmission lines with stringent requirements for phase noise.
