Abstract :
We report a high performance blanket ion implanted 0.6 /spl mu/m GaAs-MESFET/MSM receiver circuit. The receiver is fabricated without the use of a grown layer which opens the door for low cost applications. The significance of this work is that the full receiver exhibits an electrical dynamic range of 36 dB, and produces a minimum 700 mV electrical output signals at -15 dBm optical input. Data rates in excess of 5 Gb/s have been achieved utilizing a 75/spl times/75 /spl mu/m MSM detector.<>
