Advanced avalanche photodiode receivers in optical communications

This thesis is concerned with a detailed study of the performance of superlattice avalanche photodiodes (SAPDs) and the implications for high bit rate direct-detection optical fibre communication systems. In these advanced detectors the electron to hole ionisation rate ratio is artificially enhanced...
