  • Germainium pin photodiode for integration into a CMOS or BICMOS technology
    Patent number: 9564549
    Abstract: A diode comprising a light-sensitive germanium region which is totally embedded in silicon and forms with the silicon a lower interface and lateral interfaces, wherein the lateral interfaces do not extend perpendicularly, but obliquely to the lower interface and therefore produce a faceted form.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 19, 2013
    Date of Patent: February 7, 2017
    Assignee: IHP GMBH—INNOVATIONS FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE MICROELECTRONICS/LEIBNIZ-INSTITUT FUR INNOVATIVE MIKROELEKTRONIK
    Inventors: Dieter Knoll, Stefan Lischke, Lars Zimmermann, Yuji Yamamoto, Andreas Trusch
