Photo-Detectors Integrated with Resonant Tunneling Diodes

Photo-Detectors Integrated with Resonant Tunneling Diodes

We report on photo-detectors consisting of an optical waveguide that incorporates a resonant tunneling diode (RTD). Operating at wavelengths around 1.55 μm in the optical communications C band we achieve maximum sensitivities of around 0.29 A/W which is dependent on the bias voltage. This is due to...
