Study on Opto-Electronic Integration of Resonant Tunnelling Diodes

Article Preview

Abstract:

We designed the monolithic opto-electronic integrated circuit composed by Resonant Tunnelling Diodes (RTD) and Heterojunction Phototransistor (HPT). Circuit simulation of RTD and HPT integration is firstly processed. The material structure and technological process of the device is introduced in detail. A good characteristic is obtained with high Peak-to-valley current ratio.
