Effect of uniaxial-strain on Ge p-i-n photodiodes integrated on Si
We demonstrate the effect of uniaxial tensile and compressive strain in Ge p-i-n photodiode integrated on Si using four-point bending structures. Responsivity at 1550 nm is increased from 0.67 to 0.75...

Aluminum gratings with subwavelength slit widths were designed and analyzed for spectral filtering of ultraviolet (UV) light. Although schemes for optical wavelength filtering have been thoroughly studied, options for UV wavelength filtering are far more limited. We analyze the unique requirements for UV based imaging and evaluate the suitability of our structures by electromagnetic simulations and experimental measurements. Rayleigh–Wood anomalies are shown to lead to sharp drops in transmission at resonance wavelengths, producing a high finesse band reject filter. Finally, we show that the structures are effective for both TE and TM polarizations and easily integrated onto semiconductor photodetectors. ©2009 American Institute of Physics
