Silicon on sapphire is a recent microelectronic circuit technology originally devised to eliminate the drawbacks of conventional junction isolation. It has since developed into a high performance MOS-type integrated circuit family. In this report a description of this logic family is given, including such topics as manufacturing processes, device physics, and performance of commercial circuits. The report concludes with an overall evaluation of this technology. (Author).

Explains the circuit design of silicon optoelectronic integrated circuits (OEICs), which are central to advances in wireless and wired telecommunications. The essential features of optical absorption are summarized, as is the device physics of photodetectors and their integration in modern bipolar, CMOS, and BiCMOS technologies. This information provides the basis for understanding the underlying mechanisms of the OEICs described in the main part of the book. In order to cover the topic comprehensively, Silicon Optoelectronic Integrated Circuits presents detailed descriptions of many OEICs for a wide variety of applications from various optical sensors, smart sensors, 3D-cameras, and optical storage systems (DVD) to fiber receivers in deep-sub-μm CMOS. Numerous detailed illustrations help to elucidate the material.

The authors investigated the formation of high-performance, device-quality, thin-film silicon (30 to 50 nm) on sapphire (TFSOS) for application to millimeter-wave communication and sensors. The resulting TFSOS, obtained by Solid Phase Epitaxy (SPE), and the growth of strained silicon-germanium (SiGe) layers on these TFSOS demonstrated enhanced devices and integrated circuit performance not achieved previously. The authors fabricated 250-nm and 100-nm T-gated devices with noise figures as low as 0.9 dB at 2 GHz and 2.5 dB at 20 GHz, with G(sub a) of 21 dB and 7.5 dB, respectively. The 250-nm devices resulted in distributed wideband amplifiers (10-GHz bandwidth BW, world record) and tuned amplifiers (15-dB, 4-GHz BW). The 100-nm devices produced voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) (25.9-GHz), 30-GHz frequency dividers. They also obtained f(sub t) (f (sub max)) of 105 GHz (50 GHz) for n-channel and 49 GHz (116 GHz, world record) for p-MODFETs (strained Si(0.2)Ge(0.8) on a relaxed Si(0.7)Ge(0.3) hetero-structure). This paper details the investigation and provides cost comparisons with competing technologies.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the photonic sensing field by covering plasmonics, photonic crystal, and SOI techniques from theory to real sensing applications. A literature review of ultra-sensitive photonic sensors, including their design and application in industry, makes this a self-contained and comprehensive resource for different types of sensors, with high value to the biosensor sector in particular. The book is organized into four parts: Part I covers the basic theory of wave propagation, basic principles of sensing, surface plasmon resonance, and silicon photonics; Part II details the computational modeling techniques for the analysis and prediction of photonic sensors; Part III and Part IV cover the various mechanisms and light matter interaction scenarios behind the design of photonic sensors including photonic crystal fiber sensors and SOI sensors. This book is appropriate for academics and researchers specializing in photonic sensors; graduate students in the early and intermediate stages working in the areas of photonics, sensors, biophysics, and biomedical engineering; and to biomedical, environmental, and chemical engineers.

In this presentation, the major issues, which confronted the formation of very thin layers of silicon (30-100 nm) on sapphire substrates for application to sub 100-nm device technology, will be reviewed. The focus of the investigation was, and still is, to achieve a structure in which the modern CMOS technology, the mainstay technology and workhorse of the electronic revolution, can be affordably implemented. In this context, one approach to the obtention of crystalline, device-quality thin film silicon-on- sapphire (TFSOS), namely the double Solid Phase Epitaxy (DSPE), has achieved truly outstanding results which are presently incorporated into high-performance products, such as phase-locked loop (PLL) ICs for wireless communication, and analog-to- digital converters for space application.
