摘要: We demonstrate an effective approach to grow high-quality thin film (>1 mu m) ofmultifold Ge/Si/Ge composite quantum dots ( CQDs) stacked heterostructures for near infrared photodetection and optical interconnect applications. An otherwise random, self-assembly of variable-fold Ge/Si CQDs has been grown on Si through the insertion of Si spacer layers to produce micron-scale-thick, stacked Ge/Si CQD layers with desired QD morphology and composition distribution. The high crystalline quality of these multifold Ge CQD heterostructures is evidenced by low dark current density of 3.68 pA/mu m(2), superior photoresponsivity of 267 and 220 mA/W under 850 and 980 nm illumination, respectively, and very fast temporal response time of 0.24 ns measured on the Ge/Si CQD photodetectors.
