Configuration of the active region for the Ge-on-Si photodetector based on carrier mobility

The design of vertical and lateral PIN Ge-on-Si photodetectors was motivated by the disparity in electron and hole mobilities. In the case of vertical PIN junction detectors, configuring the slab region as n-type doping leads to a notable increase in the bandwidth of approximately 20 GHz compared to...
