Broadband 145GHz Photodetector Module Targeting 200GBaud Applications

We demonstrate a photodetector module with a 0.8mm-RF connector and an estimated 3dB-bandwidth of 145GHz. The bandwidth of the module exceeds all other state of the art photodetector modules. The intended application of the module is for test and measurement equipment of next generation optical networks with 200GBaud.
