high-speed surface illuminated InGaAs photodiodes for datacom, telecom and sensing applications
Technical Background
High-speed surface-illuminated photodiodes are key components for hybrid-integrated photodetectors in datacom and telecom transceivers. The photodiodes operate at a wavelength
of 1310 nm for intra-datacenter links or 1550 nm for inter-datacenter and long-haul optical communication links.
The photodiode chips are based on mature InP technology and are fabricated at the wafer process line of HHI, offering-Telcordia and space-qualified processes. Due to the ability of customising the photodiode chips, costumers get the optimal performance for their application.
