Monolithically integrated silicon n MOS pin photoreceiver

Abstract
A monolithic Si optical receiver is reported that consists of an Si nMOS preamplifier and a novel, lateral Si pin photodiode. The Si photodiode has a bandwidth of 900 MHz and a responsivity of 0.48 A/W at 870 nm. The optical receiver has demonstrated open-eye operation to 370 Mbit/s with 3 µA of signal photocurrent.
