Patent abstract
Microstructure enhanced photodiodes and avalanche photodiodes are monolithically integrated with CMOS/BiCMOS circuitry such as transimpedance amplifiers. Microstructures, such as holes, can improve quantum efficiency in silicon and III-V materials and can also reduce avalanche voltages for avalanche photodiodes. Applications include optical communications within and between datacenters, telecommunications, LIDAR, and free space data communication.
