Silicon Compatible Electrically Pumped Direct Bandgap Ge/GeSn Laser

Abstract

The main objective of this program is to develop a practical electrically injected direct bandgap germanium (Ge) and germanium/tin (Ge/Sn) laser that can be fully integrated with a silicon (Si) electronics platform. Such a device is critical for on- and off-chip optical interconnects and for the future of information processing.
