Abstract
Photonic power converters designed to operate in the telecommunications O-band were measured under non-uniform 1319 nm laser illumination. Two device architectures were studied, based on lattice-matched InGaAsP on an InP substrate and lattice-mismatched InGaAs grown on GaAs using a metamorphic buffer. The maximum measured efficiencies were 52.9% and 48.8% for the lattice-matched and -mismatched designs respectively. Both 5.4-mm2 devices were insensitive to the incident laser spot size for input powers of < 250 mW and exhibited better performance for larger spot sizes with more uniform illumination profiles at higher powers.
