[en] The optoelectronic behaviour of InGaAs based metalsemiconductor-metal photodetectors with semitransparent electrodes is investigated. The devices with 50 x 50 um2 area and interdigitated electrodes with 2um finger-spacing and finger-width exhibit a dark current density less than 10pA/um2, a breakdown voltage of 45V and a saturation capacitance of 30fF. A DC responsivity of 0.61A/W and a –3dB bandwidth of 8.5GHz were achieved. The electric potential distribution is modified by a 2DEG inserted in the layer structure leading, to improved bandwidth.
