Abstract

This paper reviews near-infrared Ge photonic devices on Si towards photonic-electronic integrated circuits on a Si platform, which play a significant role in short-reach optical interconnects. In particular, applications of Ge epitaxial layers on Si to photodetectors, light emitters and optical modulators are described.
