1.9 PICOSECOND HIGH-SENSITIVITY SAMPLING OPTICAL TEMPORAL ANALYZER

An all solid‐state, high‐sensitivity sampling optical temporal analyzer has been demonstrated by integrating two interdigitated picosecond metal‐semiconductor‐metal photodetectors into a coplanar transmission line structure. The full width at half‐maximum of the response time is 1.9 ps. The noise equivalent optical power is 500 pW, and the dynamic range is more than 60 dB.
