ABSTRACT:
A differential pair of optoelectronic pnpn devices provided with probing impedances allows such pair to operate as an optical to optical, optical to electrical and electrical to optical transceiver. This basic transceiver is useful in situations where information transport is needed between two or more locations, e.g., optical interconnects in electronic computing systems. The transceiver can be repeated in arrays in connection with Si-VLSI circuitry for high bandwidth optical interconnect applications.
