  • Publication number: 20250107117
    Abstract: A Schottky diode includes a substrate with an epitaxy layer on which a cathode region and an anode region are defined. A cathode structure and an anode structure are formed in the cathode region and the anode region respectively and horizontally separated by a distance. The anode structure includes a plurality of p-type doped regions diffused from the epitaxy layer toward the substrate, with an interval is formed between adjacent two p-type doped regions. A backside metal film and a backside protection layer are sequentially formed on a back surface of the substrate. Since the manufacturing of the Schottky diode does not involve wire bonding and molding processes, the overall thickness of the Schottky diode is reduced and heat dissipation is improved. With the backside metal film on the back side of the substrate, an equivalent resistance and a forward voltage of the Schottky diode can be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20250102734
    Abstract: A semiconductor photonics device includes a plurality of grating couplers, each configured to couple a particular wavelength (or wavelength range) of an optical signal to a waveguide of the semiconductor photonics device. In some implementations, various implementations of optical signal splitters or filters described herein enable respective wavelengths (or respective wavelength ranges) to be passed to each of the grating couplers (while filtering out other wavelengths or other wavelength ranges), thereby enabling the grating couplers to each handle a respective wavelength (or respective wavelength range). This enables multiple wavelengths (or multiple wavelength ranges) to be distributed across multiple grating couplers, which may increase the bandwidth of the semiconductor photonics device relative to a semiconductor photonics device that includes only a single grating coupler.
