    摘要: A novel photodetector CMOS-compatible photodetector is disclosed in which photo-generation of carriers (electrons) is carried out in the metal of the electrodes, rather than as electron-hole pairs in the semiconductor on which the metal electrodes are deposited. The novel photo detector comprises a silicon or other semiconductor substrate material characterized by an electron energy bandgap, and a pair of metal electrodes disposed upon a surface of the silicon to define therebetween a border area of the surface. One of the two electrodes being exposed to the incident radiation and covering an area of said surface which is larger than the aforesaid border area, the aforesaid metal of the electrodes being characterized by a Fermi level which is within said electron energy bandgap.

    摘要: A high speed optical channel including an optical driver and a photodetector in a CMOS photoreceiver. The optical channel driver includes a FET driver circuit driving a passive element (e.g., an integrated loop inductor) and a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) diode. The VCSEL diode is biased by a bias supply. The integrated loop inductor may be integrated in CMOS technology and on the same IC chip as either/both of the FET driver and the VCSEL diode. The photodetector is in a semiconductor (silicon) layer that may be on an insulator layer, i.e., SOI. One or more ultrathin metal electrodes (
