摘要:
The lattice mismatching between a Ge layer and a Si layer is as large as about 4%. Thus, when the Ge layer is grown on the Si layer, penetration dislocation is introduced to cause leakage current at the p-i-n junction. Thereby, the photo-detection sensitivity is reduced, and the reliability of the element is also lowered. Further, in the connection with a Si waveguide, there are also problems of the reflection loss due to the difference in refractive index between Si and Ge, and of the absorption loss caused by a metal electrode. In order to solve said problems, according to the present invention, there is provided a vertical type pin-SiGe photodiode having a structure which is embedded in a groove formed in a part of a Si layer, in which a p-type or n-type doped layer is formed in a lower section of the groove, and in which a i-SiGe layer having a rectangular shape or a reverse tapered shape is formed on a layered structure formed by laminating a i-Si layer and a SiGe buffer layer on the lower section and the side wall of the groove. Further, in an optical connection section with a Si waveguide, impedance matching is effected by the layered structure composed of the i-Si layer and the SiGe buffer layer, and an upper metal layer is separated therefrom so that a poly-Si bridge structure is employed to electrically connect the upper metal layer therewith.

Provided is a semiconductor optical interconnection device capable of transmitting signals between laminated semiconductor chips in a structure where semiconductor chips highly functionalized by being bonded to an optical interconnection chip are laminated. The semiconductor optical interconnection device includes a semiconductor chip 1 and an optical interconnection chip 2. The optical interconnection chip 2 includes an optical element formed thereon (for instance, a photo-sensitive element, a luminous element, or an optical modulator) which has a function relating to signal conversion between light and electricity. The semiconductor chip 1 includes a transmission section 3 (for instance, a coil or an inductor) to transmit signals in a non-contact manner, and a connection section 4 (for instance, a bump) to electrically connect with the optical element.

A semiconductor light receiving element comprises: a substrate, a semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type formed on the substrate, a non-doped semiconductor light absorbing layer formed on the semiconductor layer of the first conductivity type, a semiconductor layer of a second conductivity type formed on the non-doped semiconductor light absorbing layer, and an electro-conductive layer formed on the semiconductor layer of the second conductivity type. A plurality of openings, periodically arrayed, are formed in a laminated body composed of the electro-conductive layer, the semiconductor layer of the second conductivity type, and the non-doped semiconductor light absorbing layer. The widths of the openings are less than or equal to the wavelength of incident light, and the openings pass through the electro-conductive layer and the semiconductor layer of the second conductivity type to reach the non-doped semiconductor light absorbing layer.

A light receiving circuit (114) includes a light inputting circuit (113) which converts one-system optical signal to be outputted from an optical transmission path (101) to an electrical signal and inverts a potential of the electrical signal each time the optical signal is detected, and a buffer circuit (110) which amplifies the electrical signal converted by the light inputting circuit and outputs the same. According to such configuration, since one-system optical signal may be inputted to the light receiving circuit, a system circuit configuration can be avoided to be complicated.

A game apparatus includes a CPU, and in the game apparatus, letters are displayed as visual support for a sound generated by a message generating object. When a game message is displayed, a distance between the message generating object and a player object is calculated. Then, a form of the letters to be displayed on a billboard is changed depending upon the calculated distance. The form to be changed is, for example, transparency and a size of the letters. Thus, a game image in which the form of the letters is changed depending upon the distance between the player object and the message generating object is displayed.
