Abstract
Some implementations described herein provide an optical receiver system. The optical receiver system includes optical circuitry that may include a phase shifter device, a demultiplexer device, a power combiner device, and/or a power splitter device. Different combinations of such devices within the optical circuitry may balance and/or reduce photocurrents within the photodiode device to improve a performance (e.g., a bandwidth) of the optical receiver system relative to another optical receiver system that does not include the optical circuitry.
