Abstract :
We demonstrated high-responsivity of InP-based photodiodes integrated with 90° hybrid by the low excess loss multimode interference design over wide wavelength range. These characteristics contribute to realizing high-sensitivity coherent receivers over their whole operating wavelength range.
