摘要:

A top-illuminated circular mesa uni-traveling-carrier photodetector (UTC-PD) is proposed in this paper. By employing Gaussian graded doping in InGaAs absorption layer and InP depleted layer, the responsivity and high speed response characteristics of the device are optimized simultaneously. The responsivity up to 1.071 A/W (the external quantum efficiency of 86%) is obtained at 1550 nm with a 40-μ diameter device under 10-V reverse bias condition. Meanwhile, the dark current of 7.874 nA and the 3-dB bandwidth of 11 GHz are obtained with the same device at a reverse bias voltage of 3 V.
