Abstract: This application discloses a computing system to identify suspected defects in a manufactured integrated circuit, which correspond to electrical failures detected by a test applied to the manufactured integrated circuit. The computing system can utilize the suspected defects in the manufactured integrated circuit to cluster features in a physical layout design describing the manufactured integrated circuit. Each cluster of the features corresponds to a candidate for a physical root cause of the suspected defects in the manufactured integrated circuit. The computing system can detect a physical root cause of the electrical failures in the manufactured integrated circuit based on the clusters of the features. A physical failure analysis process includes an inspection of the manufactured integrated circuit to confirm the physical root cause of the electrical failures in the manufactured integrated circuit corresponds to a systemic manufacturing fault in the manufactured integrated circuit.

Abstract: Various embodiments of a photodetector having a reflector are described. The photodetector includes a waveguide layer disposed on top of a substrate, an avalanche multiplication detection region disposed on top of the waveguide layer, and a reflector disposed adjacent to a rear surface of the waveguide layer. The waveguide layer includes a narrower input section and a wider detection section concatenated with the input section. The waveguide layer may also include a tapering section having a changing width that follows the detection section. The reflector may be a one-dimensional photonic crystal, a two-dimensional photonic crystal, or a bulk material. A careful design of the reflector and the waveguide layer of the photodetector is helpful in achieving a high responsivity and a high operation speed at the same time.
