Abstract

Two types of optoelectronic switching devices using negative differential resistance (NDR) are proposed. One is a triangular-barrier optoelectronic switch which consists of a triangular-barrier phototransistor (TBP). The other is a resonant-tunneling triangular barrier optoelectronic switch (R-TOPS) which consists of a double-barrier resonant-tunneling diode and a TBP. Optically controlled S- and N-shaped NDRs in the structure of an R-TOPS are reported.
