The properties of photodiodes being exploitable in standard bipolar, CMOS, and BiCMOS technologies are summarized. In addition examples of advanced photodiodes will be introduced in order to show how the properties of integrated photodiodes can be improved significantly by minor process modifications. Furthermore, examples of optoelectronic integrated circuits (OEICs) for such important applications like optical storage systems and optical fiber receivers are described. New trends for the circuit topology of digital-video-disk (DVD) and digital-video-recording (DVR read-OEICs are covered. Progress of OEIC receivers for optical data transmission and communication as well as optical interconnects is also summarized.
