Abstract
We report a CMOS-compatible silicon microring-enhanced avalanche photodiode based on linear defect-state absorption in a <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline" id="m1"> <mml:mrow> <mml:msup> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi mathvariant="normal">p</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> <mml:mrow> <mml:mo>+</mml:mo> </mml:mrow> </mml:msup> <mml:mi mathvariant="normal">p</mml:mi> <mml:msup> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi mathvariant="normal">n</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> <mml:mrow> <mml:mo>+</mml:mo> </mml:mrow> </mml:msup> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> junction, with high responsivities exceeding 1 A/W at telecommunication wavelengths. The large photogenerated currents give rise to giant thermo-optic nonlinearity in the microring resonator, resulting in a linear photocurrent-wavelength response spanning the full free spectral range of the microring. This unique photocurrent spectrum could enable novel applications in wavelength-resolved photodetection, such as compact on-chip spectrometers, linear chirp frequency laser source characterization, and low-cost refractometric sensors without requiring precise wavelength-tunable lasers.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
