Experimental study on tunable external cavity photodetectors

In this paper, an experiment on tunable resonant cavity enhanced (RCE) photodetector with external cavity is reported. It is the first time to realize a tunable RCE photodetector in China. A tuning range about 10 nm has been obtained and further extension is expected. Corresponding theoretical analysis and discussions are presented. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
