8•2 GHz bandwidth monolithic integrated optoelectronic receiver using MSM photodiode and 0•5 μm recessed-gate AlGaAs/GaAs HEMTs

An 8.2 GHz bandwidth monolithic optoelectronic receiver consisting of an MSM photodiode, a transimpedance amplifier, and a 50 Omega output buffer has been fabricated using an enhancement/depletion 0.5 μm recessed-gate AlGaAs/GaAs HEMT process. Successful operation at data rates up to 10 Gbit/s has been demonstrated.
