  • Abstract
    A back-illuminated planar GaInAs/InP p-i-n photodiode has been fabricated with a simple fabrication process to obtain a high-speed detector. The photodiode has a capacitance as low as 54 fF, a dark current of about 3 pA, and a quantum efficiency of 74% at a 1.55- mu m wavelength. A cutoff frequency of 31 GHz was obtained when the photocurrent was about 500 mu A and the bias voltage was -10 V.<>
