Journal ArticleDOI

High-performance Ge-on-Si photodetectors

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the major developments in Ge-on-Si photodetectors, including epitaxial growth and strain engineering, free-space and waveguide-integrated devices, as well as recent progress in Geon-On-Si avalanche photodets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photonic-bandgap microcavities in optical waveguides

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured microcavity resonances in two-and three-dimensional photonic-bandgap (PBG) structures integrated directly into a sub-micrometre-scale silicon waveguide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ge-on-Si laser operating at room temperature.

TL;DR: What is believed to be the first experimental observation of lasing from the direct gap transition of Ge-on-Si at room temperature using an edge-emitting waveguide device is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

On-chip optical isolation in monolithically integrated non-reciprocal optical resonators

TL;DR: In this article, a non-reciprocal optical resonator with a small length footprint of 290 µm on a silicon-on-insulator substrate is presented, achieving unidirectional optical transmission with an isolation ratio of up to 19.5 dB near the telecommunications wavelength of 1,550 nm in a homogeneous external magnetic field.
Journal ArticleDOI

An electrically pumped germanium laser

TL;DR: Electrically pumped lasing from Germanium-on-Silicon pnn heterojunction diode structures is demonstrated and a Germanium gain spectrum of nearly 200nm is observed.
