Abstract

High-speed resonant cavity enhanced Schottky photodiodes operating in 800-850 nm wavelength region are demonstrated. The devices are fabricated in the AlGaAs/GaAs mate1ial system. The Schottky contact is a semitransparent Au film which also serves as the top reflector of the Fabry-Perot cavity. The detectors exhibit a peak quantum efficiency of Η=0.5 at λ=827 nm wavelength and a 3 dB bandwidth of more than 50 GHz resulting in a bandwidth-efficiency product of more than 25 GHz.
