Enhanced GeSn Microdisk Lasers Directly Released on Si

Youngmin Kim et al.

Summary: By fully releasing strain-free GeSn microdisk laser devices on Si, both the relaxation of compressive strain and excellent thermal conduction are achieved, outperforming traditional suspended devices. Optical simulations demonstrate superior optical confinement and thermal simulations show negligible temperature increase, enabling higher operation temperatures and reduced lasing thresholds.

1D photonic crystal direct bandgap GeSn-on-insulator laser

Hyo-Jun Joo et al.

Summary: GeSn alloys are considered as potential lasing materials, but current GeSn lasers suffer from large device footprints and active areas. Researchers have developed a strain-free nanobeam laser with smaller device footprint and active area, showing lower threshold density and higher operating temperature compared to compressive strained counterparts. This development paves the way for practical group-IV light sources with high-density integration and low power consumption.

Monolithic infrared silicon photonics: The rise of (Si)GeSn semiconductors

O. Moutanabbir et al.

Summary: (Si)GeSn semiconductors have reached maturity after a long gestation period, but still face challenges including high-quality layer and heterostructure growth, material integrity preservation, and doping, defect density control. Overcoming these challenges will enable applications in infrared photonics and provide opportunities for infrared photodetectors, sensors, and emitters.

Strain-relaxed GeSn-on-insulator (GeSnOI) microdisks

Daniel Burt et al.

Summary: GeSn alloys offer a promising route towards a CMOS compatible light source and electronic-photonic integrated circuits by employing high Sn content or strain engineering techniques to improve laser performance. This work presents a novel dual insulator GeSn-on-insulator (GcSnOI) material platform for producing strain-relaxed GeSn microdisks on a substrate, which possess three key properties for high-performance GeSn lasers.

Electron Mobility Enhancement in GeSn n-Channel MOSFETs by Tensile Strain

Yen Chuang et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates a record high electron mobility in a tensile-strained Ge0.96Sn0.04 nMOSFET, achieved through high-quality GeSn films and different strain conditions. The use of a mesa FET structure effectively reduces OFF leakage while boosting the I-ON/I-OFF ratio significantly compared to conventional planar devices. As the GeSn film becomes more tensile strained, channel mobility is enhanced, potentially due to a higher carrier population in the Gamma valley.
