Abstract
In the present paper, noise analysis of a resonant-cavity-enhanced Si/SiGe/Si p-i-n multiple quantum well photodetector has been carried out considering the effects of material parameters of SiGe and carrier trapping at heterointerfaces. Effect of Ge-content and applied bias on the signal to noise ratio have been investigated using numerical simulation.
