J. Verbeke et al., STABILITY IMPROVEMENT OF AN OPTICAL RECEIVER MAKING USE OF A FOCUSED ION-BEAM APPARATUS, Electronics Letters, 31(5), 1995, pp. 388-390
The reliability of a receiver chip, designed to be used in a fibre-in-
board electro-optical link, is improved by providing the second stage
of the postamplifier with a Schmitt trigger. These modifications are r
ealised on the chip using a focused ion beam apparatus.
