Abstract

We proposed a microring resonator (MRR) enhanced photodetector (PD) structure. Resonance wavelength enhanced by the MRR amplifies the PD response. At L-band wavelengths, responsivity was doubled for an ultra-short germanium PD of 4 µm employing the MRR structure. Data rates of up to 40 Gb/s were also demonstrated at 1600 nm.
