Subpicosecond electrical pulse generation using photoconductive switches with long carrier lifetimes
Abstract
Using a new mechanism of electrical pulse generation, we have generated 350 fs (full width at half maximum) electrical pulses on a coplanar transmission line, fabricated on an unimplanted silicon-on-sapphire substrate.
