High-Speed High Effiency Large Area Resonant Cavity Enhanced p-I-n Photodiodes for Multimode Fiber Communications

Cataloged from PDF version of article.In this letter, we report AlGaAs–GaAs p-i-n photodiodes with a 3-dB bandwidth in excess of 10 GHz for devices as large as 60- m diameter. Resonant cavity enhanced photodetection is employed to improve quantum efficiency, resulting in more than 90% peak quantum efficiency at 850 nm

The effect of detachment and attachment to a kink motion in the asymmetric simple exclusion process

We study the dynamics of a kink in a one-lane asymmetric simple exclusion process with detachment and attachment of the particle at arbitrary sites. For a system with one site of detachment and attachment we find that the kink is trapped by the site, and the probability distribution of the kink position is described by the overdumped Fokker-Planck equation with a V-shaped potential. Our results can be applied to the motion of a kink in arbitrary number of sites where detachment and attachment take place. When detachment and attachment take place at every site, we confirm that the kink motion obeys the diffusion in a harmonic potential. We compare our results with the Monte Carlo simulation, and check the quantitative validity of our theoretical prediction of the diffusion constant and the potential form.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figure
