37 GHz bandwidth InP-based photoreceiver OEIC suitable for data rates up to 50 Gb/s

A photoreceiver optoelectronic integrated circuit based on InP with a bandwidth of 37 GHz is presented. The receiver consists of a 50 GHz waveguide-integrated photodiode and a distributed amplifier with a bandwidth of 39.5 GHz, which is composed of four high-electron mobility transistors. A system e...

Description
Summary:A photoreceiver optoelectronic integrated circuit based on InP with a bandwidth of 37 GHz is presented. The receiver consists of a 50 GHz waveguide-integrated photodiode and a distributed amplifier with a bandwidth of 39.5 GHz, which is composed of four high-electron mobility transistors. A system experiment at 40 Gb/s receiving an return-to-zero coded optical input signal is demonstrated, and a good quality of eye pattern is achieved.
