A Novel Optical Gate by Integration of a Photodiode and an Electroabsorption Modulator

A compact and stable three-port optical gate has been successfully fabricated by monolithically integrating asimple photodiode and an electroabsorption modulator. The gate shows an excellent DC logic "and" function with differ-ent load resistors. Its dynamical characteristics without packaging have also been measured. We observed a dynamic extinc-tion ratio of over 7dB with a 950Ω load resistor and a 7mW control light power at 622Mbit/s.

Monolithic Integration of Electro-Absorption Modulators and DFB Lasers by Modified Double Stack Active Layer Approach

Monolithic electro-absorption modulated distributed-feedback(DFB) lasers are proposed and fabricated by using a modified double stack active layer.The 38mA threshold,9dB extinction ratio (from 0.5V to 3.0V),and about 5mW output power at the 100mA operation current are achieved.Compared with other reported results (only 1.5mW at the same operation current) of the traditional stack active structure,the proposed structure improves the output power of devices.

Non-stoichiometry Related Deep Level Defects in Semi-insulating InP

Semi-insulating (SI) InP materials have been prepared under different stoichiometric conditions, including Fe-doping in indium-rich melt and high temperature annealing undoped wafer in phosphorus and iron phosphide ambients. Deep level defects related with non-stoichiometry have been detected in the SI-InP samples. A close relationship between the material quality of electrical property and native deep defects has been revealed by a comprehensive study of defects in as-grown Fe-doped and annealed undoped SI-InP materials. Fe-doped SI-InP material with low carrier mobility and poor thermal stability contains a high concentration of deep defects with energy levels in the range of 0.1-0.4eV. The suppression of the defects by high temperature annealing undoped InP leads to the manufacture of high quality SI-InP with high mobility and good electrical uniformity. A technology for the growth of high quality SI-InP through stoichiometry control has been proposed based on the results.

Annealing ambient controlled deep defect formation in InP

Deep defects in annealed InP have been investigated by deep level transient capacitance spectroscopy (DLTS), photo induced current transient spectroscopy (PICTS) and thermally stimulated current spectroscopy (TSC). Both DLTS results of annealed semiconducting InP and PICTS and TSC results of annealed semi-insulating InP indicate that InP annealed in phosphorus ambient has five defects, while lid? annealed in iron phospbide ambient has two defects. Such a defect formation phenomenon is explained in terms of defect suppression by the iron atom diffusion process. The correlation of the defects and the nature of the defects in annealed InP are discussed based on the results.

Observation of deep electron states in n-type Al-doped ZnS1-xTex grown by molecular beam epitaxy

Deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) technique was used to investigate deep electron states in n-type Al-doped ZnS1-xTex epilayers grown by molecular fiction epitaxy (MBE), Deep level transient Fourier spectroscopy (DLTFS) spectra of the Al-doped ZnS1-xTex (x = 0. 0.017, 0.04 and 0.046. respectively) epilayers reveal that At doping leads to the formation of two electron traps at 0.21 and 0.39 eV below the conduction hand. 1)DLTFS results suggest that in addition to the rules of Te as a component of [lie alloy as well as isoelectronic centers, Te is also involved in the formation of all electron trip, whose energy level relative to the conduction hand decreases a, Te composition increases.

Pressure behavior of deep centers in ZnSxTe1-x alloys

We have measured photoluminescence of ZnSxTe1-x alloys (x > 0.7) at 300 K and under hydrostatic pressure up to 7 GPa. The spectra contain only a broad emission band under excitation of the 406.7 nm line. Its pressure coefficients are 47, 62 and 45 meV/GPa for x = 0.98, 0.92 and 0.79 samples, which are about 26%, 7% and 38% smaller than that of the band gap in the corresponding alloys. The Stokes shifts between emission and absorption of the bands were calculated by fitting the pressure dependence of the emission intensity, being 0.29, 0.48 and 0.13 eV for the three samples, respectively. The small pressure coefficient and large Stokes shift indicate that the emission band observed in our samples may correspond to the Te isoelectronic center in the ZnSxTe1-x alloy.

Charge-sensitive deep level transient spectroscopy of helium-ion-irradiated silicon, as-irradiated and after thermal annealing

Electrically active defects in the phosphor-doped single-crystal silicon, induced by helium-ion irradiation under thermal annealing, have been investigated. Isothermal charge-sensitive deep-level transient spectroscopy was employed to study the activation energy and capture cross-section of helium-induced defects in silicon samples. It was shown that the activation energy levels produced by helium-ion irradiation first increased with increasing annealing temperature, with the maximum value of the activation energy occurring at 873K, and reduced with further increase of the annealing temperature. The energy levels of defects in the samples annealed at 873 and 1073K are found to be located near the mid-forbidden energy gap level so that they can act as thermally stable carrier recombination centres.
