Abstract

We present a two-element back-illuminated symmetric-connected uni-traveling-carrier photodiode array (SC-PDA) integrated with sub-wavelength-gratings based beam-splitter (SWGs-BS) for high power optoelectronic applications. The SC-PDA with SWGs-BS, a top-illuminated SC-PDA and a single PD were fabricated and tested. The proposed SC-PDA with SWGs-BS demonstrates a 3dB bandwidth of 23.8GHz@60mA, a saturation current of 87.9mA@12GHz and a maximum output RF power of ~16dBm@12GHz. Compared to the top-illuminated SC-PDA and the single PD, the proposed SC-PDA with SWGs-BS achieved high-power handling capability at low coupling complexity and requires no phase-matching techniques in the system.
