Abstract :
This paper presents a 2D numerical simulation of a resonant cavity enhanced metal-semiconductor-metal photodetector (RCE MSM-PD) intrinsic response. Nonstationary effects caused by electron intervalley transfer are taken into account in calculating RCE MSM-PD response. The analysis of the quantum efficiency and the pulse response shows that there is an optimum channel thickness, for which maximum response speed and quantum efficiency could be reached.
