pHotonics ELectronics functional Integration on CMOS (HELIOS)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

Photonics on CMOS is a candidate technology for applications where functional integration is needed for improving system performance while reducing size and cost.Functional demonstration of basic building blocks such as a µlaser, a detector, coupling, and link has been realized in previous research projects. As a next step the HELIOS project proposes to integrate photonics components with integrat ...

Materials for Robust Gallium Nitride (MORGaN)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,

The MORGaN project addresses the need for a new materials for electronic devices and sensors that operate in extreme conditions, especially high temperature, high electric field and highly corrosive environment. It will take advantage of the excellent physical properties of diamond and gallium nitride heterostructures. The association of the two materials will give rise to the best materials and d ...

Materials for Avalanche Receiver for ultImate SEnsitivity (MARISE)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2011,

Avalanche photodiodes are key components for many applications (telecom, ranging, sensing, spectroscopy,...) because their internal gain improves the photoreceiver sensitivity considerably. Two III-V materials of interest have emerged: AlGaAs and AlInAs, lattice-matched to GaAs and InP, respectively, and both characterised by a wide bandgap. In recent years, a breakthrough in the impact ionisation ...
