Abstract :
Low-noise p-i-n/HEMT optical receivers with bandwidths in excess of 16 GHz have recently been developed using advanced microwave design and packaging techniques. Here, state-of-the-art receiver technology, including design tradeoffs and implementation techniques for this class of ultrawide bandwidth receiver, is discussed. Some directions for future research are explored
