Researchers at Aalto University have developed an infrared photodiode that is 35 % more responsive at 1.55 µm, a key wavelength for telecommunications, compared to other germanium-based components.

The integration of silicon‐germanium technology in photonic devices has transformed optoelectronics, enabling the realisation of high‐speed, high‐sensitivity detectors that are central to modern ...

The newly developed waveguide photodiode can be incorporated into various types of programmable photonic devices to measure the intensity of light travelling in the waveguide, with accuracy ...
