A hydro-dynamic model is introduced which takes into account the electrons' velocity overshoot in the depletion region, which is a more accurate high speed device than using the normal drift-diffuse model. Based on previous results, two modified UTC-PDs are presented, and an optimized device is obtained, the bandwidth of which is more than twice that of the original.展开更多

Two kinds of evanescently coupled uni-traveling carrier photodiodes (EC-UTC-PD) were designed and characterized: one is a conventional EC-UTC-PD structure with a multimode diluted waveguide integrated with a UTC-PD; and the other is a compact EC-UTC-PD structure which fused the multimode diluted waveguide and the UTC-PD structure together. The effect of the absorption behavior of the photodiodes on the efficiency and saturation characteristics of the EC-UTC-PDs is analyzed using 3-D beam propagation method, and the results indicate that both the responsivity and saturation power of the compact EC-UTC-PD structures can be further improved by incorporating an optimized compact multimode diluted waveguide.展开更多
