Feature The GaAs photodetector will manage transmission speeds at a gigabit level. There is a 70μm absorption zone. There is an 850nm anti-reflection layer structure. The positive and negative electrodes are on the front side. All features are stable and homogeneously distributed. The GaAs photodetector is watertight and there is no need for sealing. Various designs are available, from single chips to multiple types of matrix chips.
