Abstract :
The authors report the demonstration of planar, doped silica waveguides integrated with rear-illuminated InGaAs/InP photodiodes for use in compact, singlemode, optoelectronic hybrid modules. The photodiodes are assembled with the waveguides using a selfaligned technique giving a mean excess loss of 0.9 dB at 1.3 μm and a 3 dB bandwidth of 1.5 GHz
