Abstract
3827460.v1).
Highlights
Compared to conventional photodiodes, avalanche photodiodes (APDs) provide avalanche gains, which can yield higher overall signal-to-noise ratios for the receiver modules, if the receivers’ noise is dominated by the amplifier circuit
With optical receivers being essential to all optical links, bandwidth performance of key components in receivers, such as avalanche photodiodes (APDs), must be improved
The APDs rely on In0.53Ga0.47As to efficiently absorb and detect the optical signals with 1310 or 1550 nm wavelength, the optimal wavelengths of operation for these optical links
Summary
APDs provide avalanche gains, which can yield higher overall signal-to-noise ratios for the receiver modules, if the receivers’ noise is dominated by the amplifier circuit.
