Popis: The high RF power-switching properties of the photo-injection p-i-n switch (PIPINS), an optically controlled RF switch, are investigated. Proper functioning of a PIPINS as a low insertion-loss RF switch requires that it operates as a photoconductor, where the photo-injected charge is much greater than the RF sweep out charge. Insertion loss using 650-mW optical power was
