  • Abstract
    We present an analytical device model for quantum well lateral p-n junction photodiodes (LJPDs) which takes into account the features of the carrier transport in LJPDs and their geometry. These features ensure short transit times and a low capacitance. The developed model is used to calculate the LJPD characteristics as functions of the signal frequency, bias voltage and structural parameters
