    Abstract

    Theoretical analysis of the coplanar waveguide photoconductive switch based on InGaAs material system is carried out, and the transmission performance of the radio-frequency (RF) signal in the dark state without illumination and the bright state with laser irradiation is studied. A laser pulse trigger switch with a working wavelength of 1550 nm, a pulse width of 96 fs and a repetition rate of 103.2 MHz is used to sample the 445 MHz RF signal. Experimental results confirm that the high-speed photoconductive switch can realize the bandpass sampling of the RF signal, while reducing the carrier lifetime of the switch, which is conductive to achieving higher frequency signal sampling.
