Photovoltaic field effect transistor (PVFET)-based Ge/Si photodetector for low-power silicon photonics

We propose a Ge/Si photodetector based upon photovoltaic field effect transistor (PVFET) for low-power silicon photonics. The device realizes detection by modulating the conductivity of the FET channel through photo-induced gate voltage, exhibiting ultra-high responsivity. The responsivity can reach...
