100 and 160 Gbit/s operation of uni-travelling-carrier photodiode module

Abstract

A uni-travelling-carrier photodiode module with a 1 mm connector output port has been developed. The fabricated module shows clear eye opening at data rates of 100 and 160 Gbit/s. A high output peak voltage of 0.8 V is also achieved at a data rate of 100 Gbit/s, demonstrating a significant advantage of the uni-travelling-carrier photodiode.
