High-Speed 1.56-μm Multiple Quantum Well Asymmetric Fabry-Perot Modulator/Detector (AFPMD) for Radio-Over-Fibre Applications

• We have designed and fabricated air-bridged optical modulator/detectors with modulation bandwidth exceeding 15GHz, the highest yet reported for InGaAsP/InGaAsP MQW AFPMDs. Wavelength dependence of the modulated output power at microwave frequencies is reported for the first time and the wide optical bandwidths ( gt; 17nm) so measured suggest that the AFPMD can be used with low-cost uncooled CWDM lasers in radio-over-fibre applications.
