W-band uni-travelling-carrier photodiode module for high-power photonic millimetre-wave generation

A uni-travelling-carrier photodiode module with a waveguide output port for operation in the W-band is developed. The module has a configuration equivalent to those of conventional optoelectronic devices, which is essential for higher stability and better manufacturability. The maximum saturation output power obtained from the module is 11 mW at 100 GHz.
