Abstract
Time-resolved photocurrent measurements in a reverse biased InGaAs/InP ridge waveguide multiquantum well pin laser structure at 1.54 mu m are reported. The pulse response of this monolithically integratable detector is approximately 150 ps FWHM with an internal quantum efficiency of approximately 100% at reverse bias voltages of approximately 5 V.
