Engineering of Germanium Tunnel Junctions for Optical Applications

Data transfer across millimeter-scale electrical wires is limited by both data rates and power density, which creates a performance bottleneck for semiconductor microchips in modern computer systems. Hence, silicon based platforms for optical communication are diligently explored for an on-chip opti...
