Abstract

See full text

A photo-current amplification apparatus is provided. The photo-current amplification apparatus includes a photo-detecting device including: a substrate; an absorption region comprising germanium, the absorption region supported by the substrate and configured to receive an optical signal and to generate a first electrical signal based on the optical signal; an emitter contact region of a conductivity type; and a collector contact region of the conductivity type, wherein at least one of the emitter contact region or the collector contact region is formed outside the absorption region, and wherein a second electrical signal collected by the collector contact region is greater than the first electrical signal generated by the absorption region.
