Abstract
A photodiode configuration having at least two photodiodes is described. Accordingly, the photodiodes are formed in a symmetrical configuration on a common carrier, and electrical contacts are situated in a region between the photodiodes. It is therefore possible, in particular, to use monitor diode configurations of identical construction at the two sides of a laser diode array. Accordingly, a laser diode configuration having a correspondingly configuration having a photodiode configuration is further disclosed. Finally, a method for connecting a photodiode configuration to a submount is specified.
