Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photodetectors, in particular to a photodetector with high gain-bandwidth product and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique
[0002] With the rapid development of the Internet of Things and 5G, the bandwidth requirements of optical fiber communication systems continue to increase. At present, the optical detector used in the high-speed optical signal receiving module adopts a planar avalanche photodiode (APD, Avalanche Photo Diode), which has internal gain and can amplify the current signal. The APD with a rate of 10Gbps has been widely used. However, the design and manufacture of APDs with a rate above 25Gbps is relatively difficult, which has become a limiting factor in the transmission rate of optical communication systems. The bandwidth of APD is mainly limited by the transit time of photogenerated carriers and the avalanche establishment time. At present, the 10Gbps APD adopts the ve...
