Abstract
A photodetector which extracts and detects light at a specific wavelength t ravelling through a fibre is presented. The detector is a semiconductor wav eguide evanescently coupled to a singlemode fibre. The full width at half-m aximum of the photocurrent response is 1.6 nm, and the external quantum eff iciency is 75%.
