Abstract :
Multimode waveguide evanescently-coupled photodiode structures have been developed to achieve high-speed while maintaining high responsivity. Conventional p-i-n, high-power partially depleted absorber, and separate absorption, charge, and multiplication avalanche photodiodes have been incorporated into this waveguide photodiode structure.
