Current Assisted Photonic Demodulators

Within the project [1], 0.18 um CMOS-based CAPDs has been designed and optimized to be employed as sensors for a TOF 3D imaging system. Thanks to the intrinsic demodulation capability of these detectors, simple sine wave-TOF can be implemented, obtaining information about distance from the phase difference measured between sent and received light beam. With the aid of several numerical simulations, two potential fabrication technologies have been evaluated and the optimal device geometry has been identified, with a deep understanding of the tradeoffs which control DC and AC device behaviours. Noise performance has been measured on the fabricated device, while numerical simulations are going to be carried out to deeply study such aspect.
