Deskripsi

Integrated photodetectors are essential for scalable photonic platforms, yet most efforts are concerted on the developing devices operating at infrared telecommunication wavelengths. Here, the authors report a monolithically integrated avalanche photodetector for visible light based on doped-Si rib waveguide with end-fire input coupling to a silicon nitride waveguide.
