By distributing the RC elements and matching the microwave and optical velocities the RC time constant is no longer the bandwidth-limiting factor. Moreover, the trade-off between efficiency and bandwidth, inevitable for conventional vertical photodetectors, can be eliminated. Low-temperature-grown (LTG) GaAs material has been widely utilized for high speed photodetectors [3,4]. The detector bandwidth can easily be improved due to the short carrier life time of the LTG-GaAs material. For such detectors the impulse response is no longer limited by the carrier transit time but by the much shorter carrier recombination time. In this work, we incorporated a LTG-GaAs absorption layer in a p-i-n traveling wave photodetector (TWPD). The device was successfully fabricated and our results show that the performance can be enhanced by taking advantage of both the short carrier lifetime of LTG-GaAs and the high bandwidth efficiency product of a TWPD. Figure 1 shows the structure of the device (top) and the cross section of waveguide (bottom). The layers (bottom of fig. 1) were grown in a MBE system. The LTG-GaAs absorption layer (170 nm) was grown at 215 \"C, and the substrate was subsequently insitu annealed at 590 \"C for 10 minutes. The nand players were deposited at 570 \"C. The device fabrication followed standard p-i-n photodetector processing [ 11. A polyimide layer was spun on the detector for passivation. Coplanar waveguide (CPW) metalization was used for connection to the nand pcontacts. The electrical impulse response was measured by pump-probe electro-optic (EO) sampling. For the optical excitation we used 100 fs pulses from a modelocked Tisapphire laser operating at 800 nm. After edge-coupling into the optical waveguide, the photocurrent is generated by exciting photocarriers in the LTG GaAs layer. A small LiTaO, crystal was placed on top of the CPW lines to probe the time evolution of the signal. As shown in fig. 2, the FWHM of the measured impulse response is 570 fs, corresponding to a -3dB bandwidth of 520 GHz. A external D.C. quantum efficiency of 8% was measured. Simulations have been performed to further study the device performance. The distributed photocurrent is excited by the optical wave propagating along in the p-i-n region [ 5 ] . At the output of the photodetector, the electrical wave is collected. There are three factors that will effect the impulse response. The fast carrier recombination in the LTGaAs, the velocity mismatch between optical and electrical waves, and the microwave loss","PeriodicalId":280865,"journal":{"name":"International Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics (MWP1997)","volume":"265 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116241396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A novel phase noise measurement technique is described using the optical discriminator itself. Introduction A paper' was presented at the 1996 lntemational Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics which described a microwave source consisting of two lasers having their difference frequency stabilised by an optical discriminator. Measurements of phase noise, for an output frequency of GOOMHz, were included in that paper to demonstrate the phase noise improvement which could be obtained with the optical discriminator. The paper postulated that the phase noise spectrum is independent of output frequency and results confirming this were presented orally at the above meeting. This can be seen from the two laser signals: E1 = exp(jolt + a) (1 1 E2 = exp(jo2t + p) (2) The phase perturbations a and p give rise to phase noise sidebands. When the laser signals are combined and the difference frequency, (01 o2), is recovered using an optical detector, a and p will appear on the detector output, irrespective of the value of the difference frequency. This contrasts with quartz crystal derived microwave sources where the level of phase fluctuations and the concomitant sidebands rises rapidly with the order of frequency multiplication. The orally reported results extended to 20GHz, at which frequency the phase noise performance of the laser source was essentially the same as a Hewlett Packard 83711A Frequency Synthesiser. However these measurements were so close to the measurement floor of the instrumentation that they could not be regarded as absolute and simply confirmed the equivalence of the laser source to a high quality synthesiser. This problem is exacerbated at higher frequencies and a new measurement technique has therefore been devised and is described below. A two laser microwave source is now described which covers the frequency range of 27 to 40GHz, The actual frequency range evaluated being defined by the microwave components used in this particular experimental configuration and not the optics. The original phase noise measurements' were made using a Hewlett Packard 8565E Spectrum Analyser with an 85671A Phase Noise Measurement Utility. As this was unsuitable for measurements at frequencies up to 40GHz an alternative approach was used. Since the optical discriminator provides a reference for reducing phase noise sidebands it also provides a very convenient means for the measurement of these components. These appear at the discriminator output as the demodulated FM noise spectrum which can be readily converted to the phase noise spectrum of the two laser microwave source. This technique has the added advantage of yielding much higher sensitivities than the spectrum analyser approach. This has allowed much more accurate measurements to be made at offset frequencies above 1 OKHz, where the measurement sensitivi","PeriodicalId":280865,"journal":{"name":"International Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics (MWP1997)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124071777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These micro/pico cellular technologies will pose the following new problems: (1) many radio base stations for wide area service; (2) a long implementation time and a large investment for future new service; (3) excess base station equipment due to increasing traffic peak factor. To solve the above problems, radio highway network has been proposed [ 13. This network consists of Fiber and Radio Extension Link (FREx Link) [2] [3], so called microwave-over-fiber link and photonic switching routing nodes. (Fig. 1) In the network, radio signals transmitted by the radio terminals are encapsulated into optical signal and transferred to the appropriate remote radio control station via several optical routing nodes with their radio signal format kept. Consequently, the system can open the radio free-space for radio signals among any cell, and the radio free space can be switched instantaneously according to the demands of the mobile users or service providers.","PeriodicalId":280865,"journal":{"name":"International Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics (MWP1997)","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124968751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
