In a previous paper [1] we discussed the advantages in using linear optical
transmission systems based on quantum well diodes in modern high energy ph
ysics experiments. In this paper, after a short summary of the quantum well
theory, the electronics section of the above optical transmission system i
s presented. In particular the basic configuration of a transimpedance ampl
ifier and the arrangement of an optical remote control system for the ampli
fier gain and bandwidth tuning are discussed.
