Abstract
Please CANCEL the abstract and replace it with the following. No new matter is added. Disclosed herein is an optoelectronic device that includes an emitter operated with an electrical input voltage and configured to emit electromagnetic radiation during operation. It further includes a receiver that includes at least one photodiode, the receiver being configured to convert electromagnetic radiation emitted by the emitter to an output voltage. It further includes an optical sensor that includes at least one avalanche photodiode, wherein the optical sensor is operated with the output voltage. Also disclosed is a system for and a method of manufacturing the optoelectronic device.
Claims16
An optoelectronic device, comprising:
- an emitter, operated with an electrical input voltage and configured to emit electromagnetic radiation during operation;
- a receiver comprising at least one photodiode, the receiver being configured to convert electromagnetic radiation emitted by the emitter to an output voltage;
- and
- an optical sensor comprising at least one avalanche photodiode, wherein the optical sensor is operated with the output voltage.
A method of manufacturing an optoelectronic device, the method comprising:
