A review is presented of work over the last 10 years which has been aimed at trying to
produce a Si‐based THz quantum cascade laser. Potential THz applications and present …

Silicon-based lasers have long been sought, since they will permit monolithic integration of
photonics with high-speed silicon electronics and thereby significantly broaden the reach of …

Silicon photonics has expanded considerably in the last decade and a number of
companies have also released products onto the market place. Some of the recent results …

Silicon has been the miracle material for the electronics industry, and for the past twenty
years, technology based on Si microelectronics has been the engine driving the digital …

Abstract Strain-symmetrized Ge/SiGe multiple quantum wells have been grown on a thin
(2.1 µm) relaxed Si 0.2 Ge 0.8/Ge/Si (1 0 0) virtual substrate (VS) by reduced pressure …

In this work the growth of complex n-type, high Ge content superlattice structures by reduced
pressure chemical vapor deposition is presented. The structures feature 50 repeats of a 14 …
