ABSTRACT
We present a compact on-chip resonator enhanced silicon metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) photodetector in 850 nm wavelength band for communication and lab-on-chip bio-sensing applications. We report the highest responsivity of 0.81 A/W for a 5 µm long device. High responsivity is achieved by integrating the detector in a silicon nitride ring resonator. The resonance offers 100X responsivity improvement over a single-pass photodetector due to cavity enhancement. We also present a detailed study of the high-speed response of the cavity and single-pass detector. We report an electro-optic bandwidth of 7.5 GHz measured using a femtosecond optical excitation. To the best of our knowledge, we report for the first time silicon nitride resonator integrated Si-MSM detector in SiN-SOI platform.
