pHotonics ELectronics functional Integration on CMOS
HELIOSDate of preparation: 09.10.2007Type of funding scheme: Large-scale integrating project (IP)Work programme topics addressed: ICT-2007.3.5: Photonic components and subsystemsName of the coordinating person: Laurent Fulberte-mail: [email protected]
• Objectives: to build a complete design and fabrication chain enabling the integration of a photonic layer with a CMOS circuit, using microelectronics fabrication processes. It will make accessible integration technologies for a broad circle of users in a foundry-like, fabless way
– Demonstrating the power of this approach through demonstrators addressing different industrial needs
– Preparing the future by exploring alternative approaches that offer clear advantages in terms of integration on CMOS.

• photonics/electronics convergence at the process level and design level
• Different activities:
– Developing the whole “food chain”• high performance generic building blocks
Task 11.1 Amorphous Si modulator (IMM)Exploit amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) as a material to form a modulator to be fabricated at the end of the CMOS process.
We plan to design, fabricate and characterise field-effect driven elements.The proposed basic technology is shown, with possible changes in the cladding layer. The proposed stacked modulator scheme highly enhances the electro-optical effects in the region where they are more effective on the propagating beam.
WP11: INNOVATIVE PROOF OF CONCEPTS (CNRS)
-Task 11.2: Silicon nanocrystals for light emission and amplification (UNITN)Realize an injection silicon laser based on active Er impurities which are excited via electrical injection into Si-nc embedded in a dielectric (oxide, nitride)
1. LED with Si-nc emitting at 0.75 μm with EQE of about 1% and a turn on voltage of less than 5V2. LED with Er coupled to Si-nc emitting at 1.55 μm with same EQE and turn on voltage3. Waveguide amplifiers with Er coupled to Si-nc, electrically driven and having a gain of 10 dB4. Injection silicon laser emitting at 1.55 μm
Task 11.3 Novel concepts of heterogeneous integration (CNRS)
This task will concentrate on the development of an innovative technological/conceptual scheme for 3D microphotonics on CMOS based on III-V/Silicon heterogeneous integration and diffractive photonics and opens the way to far larger functionality and wider potential impact than in the version of INTEL/PICMOS
