摘要:
A photo detector comprising a grating (PC). The grating (PC) is arranged on top of a surface of an active semiconductor layer. The grating (PC) is patterned in uninterrupted first strips (ST1), that are arranged in a first direction (x) in a first predetermined interval (a), and second strips (ST2), that are arranged in a second direction (y) in a second predetermined interval (b). The second strips (ST2) each comprise at least one interruption in a region between each two neighboring first strips (ST1) in form of a predetermined gap (d). Positively doped regions (P) and negatively doped regions (N) each are arranged as strips in parallel with the first strips (ST1) such that in a region between each two neighboring first strips (ST1) alternately either one of the positively doped regions (P) or one of the negatively doped regions (N) is arranged.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for designing a device to operate in a coupling mode, a detection mode, or a reflection mode for incident light. The incident light has a wavelength λ and is incident upon a semiconductor structure of the device at an angle of incidence (θi). A voltage (V) is applied to the device. Each mode may be designed for an ON state and/or OFF state. For the coupling mode and detection mode, the ON state and OFF state is characterized by high and low absorption of the incident light, respectively, by the semiconductor structure in conjunction with the applied voltage V and angle of incidence θi. For the reflection mode, the OFF state and ON states is characterized by a shift in the optical path length of λ/2 and about zero, respectively, in conjunction with the applied voltage V and angle of incidences θi.

摘要:
An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device for protecting an I/O port of an electronic circuit from overvoltage and a coil structure for use in an ESD protection device. The ESD protection device includes: a plurality of inductors that are serially coupled in a line, where a node is formed between two neighboring inductors; and a plurality of protection arrangements adapted to conduct charges to one provided potential when an overvoltage is applied, where each of the protection arrangements is connected with one of the nodes, and where the serially coupled inductors are magnetically coupled with each other.

A continuously tunable inductor with an inductive-capacitive (LC) voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) having a primary coil. The inductor includes a separate isolated secondary coil, a set of transistors composing a closed loop with the secondary coil, a magnetic coupling between the primary coil of the LC VCO and the secondary coil, an electrical coupling between the LC VCO and the set of transistors composing a closed loop with the secondary coil, and means for electric current injection into the closed loop. Such an inductor can be tuned by modulating a mutual inductance, which is magnetically and electrically coupled with the LC VCO by injection of an electric current (I0).
