چکیده
Copyright 2012 Novel SiGe Processes and Devices for Nano-Photonics Applications PI: Prabhakar Bandaru Experts in the photonics industry see potential in the integration of Germaniumbased optical components with conventional CMOS-based electronics, allowing for the development of opto-electronic integrated circuits with superior performance and functionality (compared to optical or electronic circuits alone). With this grant, Bandaru hopes to collaborate with an industry leader on further development and commercialization of his technology to make a Germanium-onSilicon integrated photodetector capable of detecting 2.5 Gigabits per second.

متن کاملTwo-curve-shaped biosensor using photonic crystal nano-ring resonators
We design a novel nano-ring resonator using two-dimensional photonic crystal (2D-PhC), for bio-sensing applications. The structure of biosensor is created by two-curve-shaped ring resonator which sandwiched by two waveguides. These are configured by removing one row of air holes. The refractive index of sensing hole is changed by binding an analyte. Hence, intensity of the transmission spectrum...
متن کاملSiGe BiCMOS Baseline Technology for More than Moore Functional Diversification
“More Than Moore” functional diversification by combining different technologies is enlarging the spectrum for embedded system applications. In this paper we focus on the monolithic integration approach of optical components into the front-endoff-line (FEOL) to combine electronics and photonics (Si Photonics), and of MEMS (microelectro-mechanical systems) into the back-end-offline (BEOL) of SiG...
متن کاملFocused Ion Beam Nano-structuring for Applications in Photonics
To date, nano-and micro-structuring has commonly been implemented by a combination of specifically optimized processes of electron-beam lithography and reactive ion etching, thus limiting the range of materials that can be structured to only a few. In this talk we will introduce focused ion beam (FIB) milling as an emerging technology that enables fast, reliable and well-controlled nanometer-si...
