Abstract

A four-layer asymmetric waveguide structure using a nonabsorbing 1.08 eV bandgap InGaAsP waveguiding layer has been studied for high saturation power, high speed waveguide photodiode operating at 1.32 micrometers wavelength. A peak photocurrent of 32 mA corresponding to an optical power of 76 mW has been obtained for 40 GHz waveguide photodiode.
