Current-voltage characteristics of the (a) vertical junction microdisk modulator and (b) Ge photodetector, showing the diode responses. Thermal tuning of the (c) microdisk modulator and (d) microring filter. Both diode responses and thermal tuning indicate working condition of the system after erbium-doped Al2O3 thin film deposition at 310 °C.
