A photonic generator is provided. The photonic generator uses ultra-wide band millimeter wave (MMW) for generating a high-power ultra-broad band white noise. Thus, the present disclosure can be used for failure detection of instantaneous all-band device, noise detection of instantaneous all-band amplifier and mixer, wide-band cipher transmission, pseudo-random bit generation, ADC dithering of analog-digital converter, saturation power test of wide-band optical communicator, system noise detection of MMW receiver, and gain and phase detection of MMW interferometer.

Photonic generator of ultra-wide band millimeter wave

The present disclosure provides a high-speed laser power converter (LPC). The LPC is able to be cascaded. The LPC has a high-speed photodiode (PD) performance even operated under a forward bias operational voltage. Thus, the present disclosure can generate power (instead of consume power) during high-speed data transmission in an optical interconnect (OI) system using 850 nano-meters (nm) wavelength vertical cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL).

Laser power converter for data detection and optical-to-electrical power generation

An optoelectronic switch using millimeter wavelength (MMW) is provided. An r voltage pulse is applied to a device under test (DUT) for switching the photo-generated MMW power The DUT is operated under reverse bias. An optical light source with modulated MMW envelop is injected on to DUT for MMW power generation. Thus, based on change of the reverse bias, speed is violently changed and the MMW optoelectronic switch is thus obtained.

Optoelectronic switch transmitter using millimeter wavelength

The present disclosure uses at least two cascaded photodetectors. Device area is increased to provide a bigger current than a single photodetector under the same bandwidth. Hence, bandwidth efficiency (BRP) and saturation current-bandwidth product (SCBP) are improved for a high speed, a high responsivity and a high bandwidth with simple structure and low cost.
