    Abstract: The system includes a light-transmitting medium positioned on a base. The light-transmitting medium included a ridge and a slab region. The ridge extends upward from the slab region and defines a portion of a waveguide on the base. The waveguide is configured to guide a light signal through the device. The device also includes an avalanche effect light sensor positioned on the base and configured to detect the presence of the light signal. The light sensor includes a light-absorbing medium positioned on the ridge of the light-transmitting medium such that the light signal is coupled from the light-transmitting medium into the light-absorbing medium. The light-transmitting includes a charge layer located at an interface of the light-transmitting medium and the light-absorbing medium. A multiplication region is formed in the slab regions of the light-transmitting medium such that the multiplication region receives charge carriers from the charge layer during the operation of the light sensor.

    Abstract: The ring resonator includes waveguides configured to guide light signals. The waveguides include an input waveguide and one or more loop waveguides. One of the loop waveguides is a primary loop waveguide that is optically coupled with the input waveguide at a wavelength of light. A tuner is configured to tune the wavelength at which the light is optically coupled from the input waveguide into the primary loop waveguide. One or more light detectors are each configured to provide an output indicating an intensity of light guided in one of the one or more loop waveguides. Electronics are configured to tune the tuner in response to the output from the light detector.

    Abstract: A MOS transistor (60, 62) is provided. The structure of the transistor (60, 62) includes: a semiconductor substrate (10), a channel area (20, 24), source/drain regions (22, 26), a gate (30, 32), a gate insulating layer (11), a shallow trench isolation region (12), a passive layer (50, 52), and holes (40, 42) formed with a certain distance to the gate insulating layer (11). Wherein both the shapes of the holes (40, 42) and the Young's modulus' difference between the material in the holes (40, 42) and that around the holes (40, 42) contribute to the stress concentration effect, thus the stress in the channel area (20, 24) is enhanced. The structure of the transistor (60, 62) can greatly reduce the stress attenuation during the transmission from stress resource to the sensitive region, and concentrate the stress in the sensitive region. The structure can be involved in large size device, especially.
