Abstract
A new approach to laser-based optoelectronic integration is described. By using a single epitaxial growth structure and a common processing sequence all the electrical and optical devices required for a complete OEIC technology have been realized. We discuss the demonstrated individual device performance as well as the first implementation of an integrated combination of devices. Future applications such as the implementation of a basic building block for a 2 x 2 smart pixel switching node are discussed along with comparison to other laser and modulator based approaches.
