32 Gbps heterogeneously integrated quantum dot waveguide avalanche photodiodes on silicon

We report a heterogeneous GaAs-based quantum dot (QD) avalanche photodiode (APD) on silicon with an ultralow dark current of 10 pA at − <#comment/> 1 V , 3 dB bandwidth of 20 GHz and record gain-bandwidth product (GBP) of 585 GHz. Furthermore, open eye diagrams up to 32 Gb/s are demonstrated at 1310 nm. The k-factor has been measured for these devices to be as low as 0.14. A polarization dependence on gain and bandwidth has been observed and investigated. This shows the potential to integrate a high-speed receiver in a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) system on a QD-based silicon photonics platform.

Platform-agnostic waveguide integration of high-speed photodetectors with evaporated tellurium thin films

Many attractive photonics platforms still lack integrated photodetectors due to inherent material incompatibilities and lack of process scalability, preventing their widespread deployment. Here, we address the problem of scalably integrating photodetectors in a photonics-platform-independent manner. Using a thermal evaporation and deposition technique developed for nanoelectronics, we show that tellurium, a quasi-2D semi-conductive element, can be evaporated at low temperatures directly onto photonic chips to form air-stable, high-speed, ultrawide-band photodetectors. We demonstrate detection from visible (520 nm) to short-wave infrared (2.4 µm), a bandwidth of more than 40 GHz, and platform-independent scalable integration with photonic structures in silicon, silicon nitride, and lithium niobate.

SLAC Disk Loaded Waveguide (DLWG) Accelerator Structure

This drawing package is for the SLAC s-band DLWG accelerator structures used in the original linac. These structures are still operating to this day serving in the SLAC LCLS-I and FACET linacs. For access to the drawings, contact the SLAC Office of Research Partnerships & Technology Commercialization (IPRP@slac.stanford.edu).
