    Abstract: An integrated avalanche photodetector and a method for fabrication thereof. The integrated avalanche photodetector comprises a Ge body adapted to conduct an optical mode. The Ge body comprises a first p-doped region that extends from a first main surface to a second main surface of the Ge body. The Ge body further comprises a first n-doped region that extends from the first main surface towards the second main surface of the Ge body. An intrinsic region occupies the undoped part of the Ge body. A first avalanche junction is formed by the first n-doped region that is located aside the p-doped region. The Ge body further comprises an incidence surface, suitable for receiving an optical mode, and a second n-doped Ge region that covers the Ge body and forms a second avalanche junction with the first p-doped region at the first main surface.

    Abstract: Semiconductor photonics devices for coupling radiation to a semiconductor waveguide are described. An example photonics device comprises a semiconductor-on-insulator substrate comprising a semiconductor substrate, a buried oxide layer positioned on top of the semiconductor substrate, and the semiconductor waveguide on top of the buried oxide layer to which radiation is to be coupled. The example device also comprises a grating coupler positioned on top of the buried oxide layer and configured for coupling incident radiation to the semiconductor waveguide. The semiconductor substrate has a recessed portion at the backside of the semiconductor substrate for receiving incident radiation to be coupled to the semiconductor waveguide via the backside of the semiconductor substrate and the grating coupler.
