摘要：

Pulse responses of top-illuminated GaAs metal-semiconductor-metal photodetectors (MSM PD's) are evaluated using a two-dimensional ensemble Monte Carlo technique. Pulsewidths for MSM PD's are presented as functions of the gap length between metal electrodes and the photon energy of optical pulses. It is also shown that reducing the thickness of the absorption region is very effective for shortening the pulse-width of MSM PD's.
