D-band rectangular-waveguide-output uni-travelling-carrier photodiode module

Abstract

A uni-travelling-carrier photodiode module with a WR-6 waveguide output port for operation in the D-band has been developed. The bandwidth with the output power above −10 dBm ranged from 104 to 185 GHz. The module stability was also confirmed under an optical input stress test, a temperature cycle test, and mechanical vibration and shock tests.
