Abstract

Hybrid integrated photodetectors with flat-top steep-edge spectral responses that consist of an Si-based multicavity Fabry–Perot (F–P) filter and an InP-based $p\text{-}i\text{-}n$ absorption structure (with a 0.2 μm ${\mathrm{In}}_{0.53}{\mathrm{Ga}}_{0.47}\mathrm{As}$ absorption layer), have been designed and fabricated. The performance of the hybrid integrated photodetectors is theoretically investigated by including key factors such as the thickness of each cavity, the pairs of each reflecting mirror, and the thickness of the benzocyclobutene bonding layer. The device is fabricated by bonding an Si-based multicavity F–P filter with an InP-based $p\text{-}i\text{-}n$ absorption structure. A hybrid integrated photodetector with a peak quantum efficiency of 55% around 1549.2 nm, the $-0.5\mathrm{dB}$ band of 0.43 nm, the 25 dB band of 1.06 nm, and 3 dB bandwidth more than 16 GHz, is simultaneously obtained. Based on multicavity F–P structure, this device has good flat-top steep-edge spectral response.
