The junction capacitance of a nano-photodiode is extremely low (<10aF), which permits a high load resistance to be used, resulting in higher output voltage at high frequencies. A ceramic Pb(,ZrTi)O3 film with average crystallite diameter below 20nm has a high electro-optical coefficient (>150pm/V) suitable for on-chip modulators. This paper introduces a new approach for realizing high-speed optical interconnects on silicon chips. This concept uses nano-photodiodes on silicon with extremely low parasitic capacitance (less than 10aF) enabling robust communication at very high frequencies. The results demonstrate 5GHz clocking with the promise of up to 20GHz.
