Abstract :
We demonstrate a novel structure of photodiode. By incorporating the leaky optical waveguide with distributed-Bragg-reflector (DBR) and partially p-doped photo-absorption layer, this device exhibits much superior performance of speed, saturation power, and responsivity to the control without DBR mirrors
