A method for forming a photodetector device includes forming an insulator layer on a substrate, forming a germanium (Ge) layer on the insulator layer and a portion of the substrate, forming a second insulator layer on the Ge layer, implanting n-type ions in the Ge layer, patterning the n-type Ge layer, forming a capping insulator layer on the second insulator layer and a portion of the first insulator layer, heating the device to crystallize the Ge layer resulting in an single crystalline n-type Ge layer, and forming electrodes electrically connected to the single crystalline n-type Ge layer. |
