Abstract

The design and performance of metamorphic InGaAs/InGaAlAls/ InAlAs double heterojunction photodiodes fabricated on GaAs substrates are presented. A low dark current of 500 pA at 5 V bias, a responsivity of 0.6 A/W, and a -3 dB bandwidth of 38 GHz for 1.55μm light have been achieved by using a large bandgap drift region in conjunction with a digitally graded bandgap layer.
