Novel Single-Sideband Modulator in Silicon on Insulator Technology with Widely Tunable Carrier-to-Sideband Ratio for Broadband RF Signals

In analogy to the formation of SIMOX (Separation by IMplanted OXygen) material which is presently the most promising silicon-on-insulator technology, high-dose ion implantation of cobalt in silicon is used to synthesise buried CoSi2 layers. So far, for high-dose ion implantation of Co in Si, only formation of CoSi2 is reported. In this paper it will be shown that CoSi inclusions occur when the stoichiometric Co concentration is exceeded at the peak of the Co distribution. 350 keV Co+ ions are implanted into (001) Si wafers to doses of 2, 4 and 7×l017 per cm2. During the implantation the wafer is kept at ≈ 550°C, using beam heating. The subsequent annealing treatment was performed in a conventional nitrogen flow furnace at 1000°C for 5 to 30 minutes (FA) or in a dual graphite strip annealer where isochronal 5s anneals at temperatures between 800°C and 1200°C (RTA) were performed. The implanted samples have been studied by means of Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy (RBS) and cross-section Transmission Electron Microscopy (XTEM).

Doubled frequency optical two-tone generation and optical single sideband (SSB) modulation by the dual-electrode-type electro-optic (EO) modulator with a single Mach–Zehnder (MZ) interferometer were considered. We theoretically showed that redundant spectrum components in the modulated optical signals, which are caused by the imbalance of light splitting ratio between the two arms of the interferometer, are significantly suppressed by controlling the input power ratio of RF modulation signals applied to each electrode. This effect was confirmed by the experiment, where an optical two-tone with the redundant components 49.8 dB lower than the primary two-tone components in intensity level was obtained. This method is also valid for suppression of undesired frequency components of RF signals that are generated at a photo detector from the optical two-tone waves propagated through a dispersive optical fiber.

Silicon On Insulator Technology

The presented results indicate virus-like particles of the coronavirus (CVP) using a nanowire (NW) biosensor based on silicon-on-insulator technology. In the experiment, we used suspensions of CVP and of specific antibodies to the virus. Measurements of the current value of the field-effect transistor before and after the introduction of the CVP on the surface of the nanowire were performed. Results showed antibody + CVP complexes on the phase section with the surface of the nanowire modulate the current of the field-effect transistor; CVP has an electrically positive charge on the phase section “nanowire surface-viral suspension»; antibody + CVP complexes have an electrically negative charge on the phase section “nanowire surface-viral suspension”; the sensitivity of the biosensor is made up of 10−18 M; the time display was 200–300 s.
