Abstract

For optical interconnection application, typically GaAs light source or Si photodiodes are employed. For the receiver electronics, however, the CMOS technology would be the technology of choice for both the performance and the cost. In this paper, we present a photodetector technology that is completely CMOS compatible and has a novel structure that leads to variable photosensitivity. The latter can be used for both optical switching and logic applications as well.
