A monolithic optoelectronic receiver with a bandwidth of more than 20 GHz and a transimpedance of 300 Ω has been designed and fabricated in InP HBT technology. The results demonstrate the possibility of producing a compact component with a single power supply voltage for conversion of modulated light into electric signals with a bandwidth that may be large enough for 40 Gbit/s transmission.
