    Abstract: A method of forming an integrated photonic semiconductor structure having a photodetector device and a CMOS device may include depositing a dielectric stack over the photodetector device such that the dielectric stack encapsulates the photodetector. An opening is etched into the dielectric stack down to an upper surface of a region of an active area of the photodetector. A first metal layer is deposited directly onto the upper surface of the region of the active area via the opening such that the first metal layer may cover the region of the active area. Within the same mask level, a plurality of contacts including a second metal layer are located on the first metal layer and on the CMOS device. The first metal layer isolates the active area from the occurrence of metal intermixing between the second metal layer and the active area of the photodetector.

    Abstract: Photonic devices are created by laterally growing a semiconductor material (i.e., a localized semiconductor-on-insulator layer) over a localized buried oxide (BOX) created in a semiconductor by either a trench isolation process or thermal oxidation. In one embodiment, and after trench formation in a semiconductor substrate, the trench is filled with oxide to create a localized BOX. The top surface of the BOX is recessed to depth below the topmost surface of the semiconductor substrate to expose sidewall surfaces of the semiconductor substrate within each trench. A semiconductor material is then epitaxially grown from the exposed sidewall surfaces of the semiconductor substrate.
