FREE CARRIER LIFETIME MODIFICATION FOR SILICON WAVEGUIDE BASED DEVICES

Abstract

We investigate the effects of implanting silicon directly into a silicon waveguide to modify carrier lifetime. Experimental results show over 85% reduction in the carrier lifetime for only a small net increase in optical absorption.
