We report fabrication and optical characteristics of an InGaP/GaAs heterojunction phototransistor (HPT) transferred to a Si substrate by a metal wafer bonding (MWB) and epitaxial lift-off (ELO) process at room temperature. An intermediate Pt/Au double layer between the HPT layer and Si provided a very smooth surface by which to achieve the MWB, and excellent durability against the acid solution during the ELO process. These processes were observed using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). While the results on a low temperature photoluminescence (LTPL) signal and high resolution x-ray diffraction (HRXRD) rocking curve of the bonded device film implied a defect-free bonding, a very low collector dark current of the fabricated HPT was observed. The optical performance of a bonded InGaP/GaAs HPT on Si, operating at 635 nm wavelength is also investigated.

Monolithic Integration of Nano-Ridge Engineered InGaP/GaAs HBTs on 300 mm Si Substrate.

Advanced RF Group, IMEC, 3001 Leuven, Belgium.
Nano-ridge engineering (NRE) is a novel method to monolithically integrate III-V devices on a 300 mm Si platform. In this work, NRE is applied to InGaP/GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs), enabling hybrid III-V/CMOS technology for RF applications. The NRE HBT stacks were grown by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy on 300 mm Si (001) wafers with a double trench-patterned oxide template, in an industrial deposition chamber.

The module utilizes 4 x 4 arrays of AND and XOR logic gates that respectively perform the functions of reducing the data fields and determining a match between the input data and a selection argument. The logic arrays were fabricated with InGaP/GaAs heterojunction phototransistors that drive vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSEL's).
