摘要
An optoelectronic integrated circuit (OEIC) composed of a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) appliqued to an NMOS drive circuit was fabricated to form an optical link from the CMOS chip, A custom NMOS circuit was designed and fabricated through the MOSIS foundry service in a standard 0.8-mu m CMOS process, InGaAs quantum-well VCSEL's were grown, fabricated and tested on an n-type GaAs substrate, Next, the VCSEL's underwent a substrate removal technique and were appliqued to the NMOS circuitry, The OEIC was tested at the chip level and showed an electrical to optical conversion efficiency of 1.09 mW/V. Modulation results are also discussed.
