Selective-area growth of Ge and Ge/SiGe quantum wells in 3 μm silicon-on-insulator waveguides
Stephanie A. Claussen,Krishna C. Balram,Edward T. Fei,Theodore I. Kamins,James S. Harris,David A. B. Miller +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate a robust process for growing high quality bulk Ge and SiGe quantum wells in selected areas of 3 μm thick silicon-on-insulator waveguides, eliminating sidewall growth and hence facilitating low insertionion-loss optical modulators.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Ultra-Thin Crystalline Silicon Solar Cells with Nickel Oxide Interlayer as Hole-selective Contact
Muyu Xue,Raisul Islam,Junyan Chen,Zheng Lyu,Yusi Chen,Daniel DeWitt,Albert Pleus,Christian Tae,Ching-Ying Lu,Kai Zang,Jieyang Jia,Yijie Huo,Theodore I. Kamins,Krishna C. Saraswat,James S. Harris +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, a hole-selective interlayer for thin-film crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cells is proposed, which could potentially reduce the contact recombination between p-Si/metal interfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Stem Study of P and Ge Segregation to Grain Boundaries in Si1-xGex Thin Films
TL;DR: The segregation of phosphorus to grain boundaries in phosphorus implanted Si 0.87 Ge 0.13 films, deposited by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), was directly observed by scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) with energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) microanalysis as discussed by the authors.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Efficient luminescence in highly tensile-strained germanium
Yijie Huo,Hai Lin,Yiwen Rong,Maria Makarova,M. Li,Robert Chen,Theodore I. Kamins,Jelena Vuckovic,James S. Harris +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, up to 2.3% biaxial tensile-strained Ge layers have been grown on InGaAs/GaAs buffer layers and a dramatic increase in low temperature photoluminescence intensity for >2% strained Ge confirms the existence of a direct band gap Ge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Restoring sight to the blind
Daniel Palanker,James Donald Loudin,Yossi Mandel,Georges Goetz,Daniel Lavinsky,Lele Wang,Philip Huie,Theodore I. Kamins,James S. Harris,Keith Mathieson,Richard Smith,Alexander Sher +11 more
TL;DR: Direct optical activation of each pixel in the subretinal implant eliminates the need for complex electronics and wiring schemes, and preserves the natural link between image perception and eye movements.
