    Silicon-Germanium multi-quantum well photodetectors in the near infrared
    (Optical Society of American (OSA), 2012) Onaran, E.; Onbasli, M. C.; Yesilyurt, A.; Yu, H. Y.; Nayfeh, A. M.; Okyay, Ali Kemal
    Single crystal Silicon-Germanium multi-quantum well layers were epitaxially grown on silicon substrates. Very high quality films were achieved with high level of control utilizing recently developed MHAH epitaxial technique. MHAH growth technique facilitates the monolithic integration of photonic functionality such as modulators and photodetectors with low-cost silicon VLSI technology. Mesa structured p-i-n photodetectors were fabricated with low reverse leakage currents of ∼10 mA/cm2 and responsivity values exceeding 0.1 A/W. Moreover, the spectral responsivity of fabricated detectors can be tuned by applied voltage. © 2012 Optical Society of America.

    Silicon-germanium multi-quantum wells for extended functionality and lower cost integration
    (IEEE, 2010) Onbasli, M.C.; Yesilyurt, Alper; Yu H.Y.; Nayfeh, A.M.; Okyay, Ali Kemal
    Silicon-Germanium quantum wells were grown in p-i-n layers using a recently developed epitaxial technique. Nanostructural characterization (TEM, XPS, photoluminescence) indicates low-dislocation density, high quality films. Solar cells made of these layers have low leakage current. ©2010 IEEE.
