Abstract
In this work, a whispering gallery mode (WGM) microdisk resonator based on Ge1-xSnx grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) was fabricated and characterized. Various process conditions and different Sn contents (4% and 1%) were explored to confirm the feasibility of Ge1-xSnx for microcavity device operation. Optical modes with wavelengths in the infrared (IR) range beyond 1550 nm were successfully confined in the devices fabricated with different diameters, and free-spectral ranges (FSRs) near 20 nm were obtained.

Determination of the optical energy gap of Ge1−xSnx alloys with 0<x<0.14

TL;DR: In this article, the optical energy gap of Ge1−xSnx alloys has been determined from transmittance measurements, using a fast-Fourier-transform infrared interferometer, showing that the change from indirect to direct band gap occurs at a lower critical Sn concentration than the value predicted from the virtual crystal approximation, tight binding, and pseudopotential models.
