PROPOSAL AT A GLANCE
Proposal name:
Ge Nanophotonics Epitaxy on Si Substrates; Physics and Devices (GENESIS)
Subject:
Development and industrialisation of efficient optical modulator for advanced Si-photonics and telecommunication based on Ge-quanten wells by exploring the Ge’s direct bandgap features such as the excitonic enhancement, high oscillator strength, Stark tuning, and optical spin injection.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Proposal Outline:
We aim to investigate in depth the potential of SiGe heterostructures comprising pure Ge nanolayers integrated on Si substrates for Si-photonics and Si based opto-electronic applications. The action is focused on the delivery of the first high speed light modulator offering a sufficient optical band gap for light modulation in fiberoptics communication including efficient manufacturing and processing technologies ready for commercialization.
