Abstract

Integration of photonic devices into Si integrated circuits (ICs) has the potential to impact low-cost optical communications applications and optical interconnects. The primary advantages of a Si-based approach to optoelectronic devices are low-cost manufacturable optical components and easily-mass produced optoelectronic integrate circuits (OEICs). This paper reports on a metal-Ge-metal photodetector fabricated on a Ge epitaxial layer grown on Si (100) substrate is reported. As such, the Ge epitaxial layers are grown using a cold wall ultrahigh vacuum chemical vapor deposition (UHV-CVD) system.
