For this purpose a fabrication process requiring only twelve main steps including a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition growth for the MSM PD layers and a MBE regrowth for the HEMT layers has been developed. At 38 GHz, a responsivity of 3.5 A/W for the OEIC is achieved.enHEMT integrated circuitsiii-v semiconductorsindium compoundsintegrated optoelectronicsmetal-semiconductor-metal structuresoptical receiversphotodetectorsvapour phase epitaxial growthnarrow-band photoreceiver oeicmonolithic integrationoptoelectronic integrated circuithigh-speed devicessubmicron msm photodetectormetal-semiconductor-metal photodetectorhigh-electron-mobility- transistorsHEMTlattice-matched InGaAs-inalas-InP layer stackfabrication processmetal-organic cvdchemical vapor depositionmbe regrowthmocvd growth38 GHz1.55 micronInGaAs-InAlAs-InPInGaAs-InP621535Narrow-band photoreceiver OEIC on InP operating at 38 GHzjournal article
