Abstract

A high speed optical receiver comprises, in combination, a non-imaging light gathering device for directing light from its entrance pupil to its exit pupil according to the edge ray principle and a photonic detector coupled to the exit pupil and having an anti-reflective micro-structured active surface area dimensioned to minimize capacitance effects commensurate with achieving a desired signaling speed.
