Optoelectronic CMOS-SEED smart pixels

We have made optoelectronic smart pixels using a hybrid integration of GaAs/AlGaAs multiple quantum well (MQW) self- electro-optic effect device (SEED) arrays flip-chip bonded directly on the top of a 1 /spl mu/m silicon CMOS circuits. This enables optoelectronic integrated circuits (OEIC) to be achieved and also the design and optimization of the CMOS circuits and the GaAs/AlGaAs multiple quantum well devices to proceed independently.
