Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Photonics, a blending of optics and electronics, has emerged as one of the world's most rapidly developing fields. Along with microelectronics, they constitute the core technologies of the information industry, and their advances are complementing each other in the tasks of the acquisition, transmission, storage, and processing of increasing amounts of information. Microelectronic device integration has progressed to the point that complete "systems-on-the-chip" have been realized. Photonic materials need to be integrated with standard electronic circuits for the implementation of the next generation optoelectronic "super-chip" where both electrons and photons participate in the transmission and processing of information. Silicon is the cornerstone material in conventional VLSI systems. However, having a relatively small and indirect fundamental energy band-gap, silicon is an inefficient light-emitter. On the other hand, direct integration of III-V photonic materials on a silicon chip is still very problematic. Squeezing light out of silicon itself appears to be an attractive alternative. Light emission from silicon is an important fundamental issue with enormous technological implications, In this work we explore several strategies towards developing silicon based optoelectronic devices. Porous silicon, a material produced by electrochemically etching silicon in aqueous hydrofluoric acid solutions, generated great interest in the early 1990s when it was shown to exhibit relatively bright, room temperature, visible photoluminescence. However, having a poor surface morphology, the material is fragile and chemically unstable leading to degradation of light emission and preventing integration with silicon processing technology. With the development of the epitaxially grown crystalline-SI/O superlattice, we attempt to overcome the morphological problems of porous silicon, retaining its light emission characteristics. Our multi-layer c-Si/O device consists of thin silicon layers sandwiched between monolayers of oxygen. The key for its fabrication is that epitaxial growth of silicon may be continued beyond the interruption with exposure to oxygen. Prepared by an Ultra High Vacuum (UHV), Molecular Beam Epitaxial (MBE) technique, the multi-layer device is extremely stable and robust, and can be readily integrated with conventional silicon VLSI processing. In addition, it exhibits bright, room temperature, visible photoluminescent and electroluminescent emission, at least as strong as that of porous silicon. With its efficient light emission, robustness and stability, the c-Si/O superlattice may hold the promise of a truly integrated silicon-based optoelectronic device.

Book excerpt: Silicon photonics has evolved rapidly as a research topic with enormous application potential. The high refractive index contrast of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) shows great promise for submicron waveguide structures suited for integration on the chip scale in the near-infrared region. Ge- and GeSn-Si heterostructures with different elastic strain levels already provide expansion of the spectral range, high-speed operation, efficient modulation and switching of optical signals, and enhanced light emission and lasing. This book focuses on the integration of heterostructure devices with silicon photonics. The authors have attempted to merge a concise treatment of classical silicon photonics with a description of principles, prospects, challenges, and technical solution paths of adding silicon-based heterostructures. The book discusses the basics of heterostructure-based silicon photonics, system layouts, and key device components, keeping in mind the application background. Special focus is placed on SOI-based waveguide configurations and Ge- and GeSn-Si heterostructure devices for light detection, modulation, and light emission and lasing. The book also provides an overview of the technological and materials science challenges connected with integration on silicon. The first half of the book is mainly for readers who are interested in the topic because of its increasing importance in different fields, while the latter half covers different device structures for light emission, detection, modulation, extension of the wavelength beyond 1.6 μm, and lasing, as well as future challenges.
