This paper presents an Al{sub {ital x}}Ga{sub 1 {minus} {ital x}}Sb avalanche photodiode with the Al composition of 0.05. The measured gain bandwidth product of this highly doped diode is 90 GHz, which is, to the authors' knowledge, the largest value for APD's operating in the long-wavelength region.
