We report on multi-wavelength pump-probe characterization of the fundamental gain dynamics in recently developed InAs/InP quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers. Recovery of the gain at various wavelengths following a powerful optical pump pulse, was recorded at different bias levels and different excitation powers. Wavelength dependencies of gain saturation depth, of the level to which the gain recovers and of the recovery rates were obtained. Unlike in quantum-dash amplifiers, these quantum-dots exhibit no instantaneous gain response, confirming their zero-dimensional nature.

The power consumption of a lateral current injection (LCI) type membrane distributed reflector (DR) laser under a high-speed direct modulation was theoretically investigated. As the results, we found that there is an optimal cavity length, which can be determined by the series resistance, to minimize the power consumption. For an example., an energy cost of 37 fJ/bit can be obtained at a modulation speed of 10 Gb/s for the cavity length of 17 μm when the grating coupling coefficient of 1800 cm-1 and the resistivity of p-InP cladding layer of 0.035 Ω·cm are used.

We investigated the effects of introducing tertiary-butyl chloride (TBCl) on InP and InAsP nanowire growth for the purpose of improving the tapering shape. The InP nanowire length was increased by supplying TBCl at low flow rates, and decreased gradually by supplying it at high flow rates. The growth in the radial direction was effectively suppressed by using TBCl. InAsP nanowires were also grown with TBCl. We obtained long and less tapered structures with good crystal quality. Selectivity of Cl etching to InAs and InP is discussed.

In this paper we present a high-speed photo-detector comprising a uni-traveling carrier photo-diode (UTC PD) monolithically integrated with a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) for 100Gbit/s applications. This new pre-amplified photoreceiver design operates at 1.55μm wavelength with the UTC PD exceeding 110GHz 3dB bandwidth at high input powers and a dark current of 1 nA. A 40% bandwidth improvement is achieved by employing new optimized transmission lines (TMLs) to equalize the intrinsic response of the detector. The high performance buried heterostructure SOA exhibits low polarization dependence loss (<;1dB) low noise figure (~8dB) and 19dB gain allowing to achieve a responsivity of >50AIW. The bias dependence of the gain and the carrier recombination was analyzed using differential carrier lifetime measurements.

The native oxides formation on ambient-stored metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) grown GaAs, InP and InAs is documented by contact angle measurements and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The time dependent transitions from hydrophobic to hydrophilic states are presented alongside the change in relative amount of different types of oxides forming on the epitaxial surfaces. We present a qualitative agreement of wettability properties with the amount of group III oxides and lack of such correlation with the overall oxide composition, somehow indicating a (surprising) minor role of group V oxides.

We propose and numerically investigate a novel hollow hexagonal InGaAs microdisk laser on a silicon substrate, which can be fabricated by the micro-channel selective-area (MC-SA) MOVPE growth technique. By simply introducing an etched hole with a suitable radius at the center of the hexagonal microdisk, quasi-whispering-gallery modes emerge and the cavity Q factor improves drastically from 371 to 3574 with a disk size of less than 20 μm2. Having full compatibility with the MC-SA MOVPE method, the presented scheme could be an attractive approach toward the monolithic integration of InGaAs disk lasers on silicon platforms.

We have demonstrated the operation of thin body GaSb-on-insulator (GaSb-OI) p-MOSFETs on Si wafers fabricated by direct wafer boding (DWB). We have developed a wafer-scale transfer technique for transferring ultrathin GaSb layers to Si wafers. We have found that the hole mobility of the thin body GaSb-OI p-MOSFETs depends on the GaSb thickness and the GaSb channel surface condition.

We demonstrate a fully integrated polarization beam splitter with a polarization extinction ratio above 25dB for both polarization states and an insertion loss of 2.5dB. The footprint of the device including electrical contacts is 0.4×2mm2. A Mach-Zehnder configuration is used, the birefringence in both arms differs due to different waveguide widths. Fabrication tolerances can be compensated with thermal tuning. The device is realized in our generic integration platform, making it viable to provide monolithically integrated solutions for polarization diversity applications.

Electro-optic effects on InGaAsP(001), (110) and (111) have been numerically analyzed for an InGaAsP photonic-wire optical modulator with a lateral PIN-junction. We have presented that largest refractive index change can be obtained using InGaAsP(110) when TE polarized light propagates parallel to [111] direction. The amount of index change is approximately 15 % larger than that of InGaAsP(001) where electric field is vertically applied. Effects of carrier depletion have also been calculated and found carrier depletion can enhance the index change several times.

Using high quality, single crystalline InP nanowire grown on silicon substrate, we demonstrates sensitive avalanche photodiode with 26.6 A/W and bipolar junction phototransistor with 4 A/W integrated onto silicon substrate. The avalanche photodiode has unique radial p-n junction that allows it to reach a high avalanche gain of 100 at a low bias of 1 V. The bipolar junction phototransistor integrates a sensitive photodiode with a receiver circuit, creating a compact, monolithic receiver circuit for optical interconnect application. These devices are promising in bringing low energy, high bandwidth optical interconnects to silicon electronics.
