Abstract

Two key parameters for RCE photodetectors that govern their suitability for ultrafast optical communication systems are considered. These are the quantum efficiency and the bandwidth efficiency product. A closed analytical form has been derived for quantum efficiency, which incorporates the structural parameters of the photodetector. Based on the simulation results, an optimization and design procedure for these photodetectors has been developed.
