ABSTRACT:
A family of lasers is provided which can be readily grown upon silicon wafer platforms, each laser having a highly doped stably strained SiGe or Ge collector layer formed upon a SiGe graded relaxed buffer layer in turn grown on the Si wafer, and an intrinsic strain-symmetric Ge--Si superlattice covered by a heavily doped stably strained SiGe emitter. The superlattice has numerous thin 8-15 atomic monolayers of interleaved Ge and Si atoms, enabling high stack heights.
