The proposed THz-to-MIR compact photonic platforms will capitalize on recent advances in controlling the structural and optoelectronic properties of (Si)GeSN direct bandgap materials. The Micro-net will collectively advance research and establish new materials physics to develop an atomistic-level understanding of growth phenomena shaping the basic properties of (Si)GeSN-based nanoscale and quantum structures, develop devise structures to harness the optoelectronic and photonic properties of (Si)GeSn-based materials and optimize the performance of light emitters, detectors and sensing devices., description french : nan, expected results english : (i) To advance research in the area of emerging group IV semiconductors to address current technological bottlenecks facing the development of light sources, detectors, sensors, and imaging devices operating in the part of the electromagnetic spectrum covering from Terahertz to Mid Infrared; and 
(ii) to develop a tunable compact photonic platform on emerging group IV semiconductors to address current challenges facing the development of light sources, detectors and sensors operating in this part of the electromagnetic spectrum., expected results french : nan, additional information english : The Micro-net is composed of one (1) Principal Investigator from  Polytechnique Montreal, eight (8) Co-Investigators (four (4) from Polytechnique Montreal, one (1) from McGill university, one (1) from Université de Sherbrooke, one (1) from McMaster University and one (1) from University of Alberta), and eight (8) Collaborators from the United States academic and Canadian private sectors.
