Abstract: | Operation of an optoelectronic integrated circuit which includes two p-i-n photodetectors, preamplifiers, a 2*2 crosspoint switch, and output buffers has been demonstrated. These circuits are fabricated in semi-insulating InP:Fe substrates by vapor-phase epitaxy and ion implantation using a planar horizontally integrated technology. Signals modulated at 150 MHz are shown to be switched at 15 MHz, with the circuits capable of detecting and passing data modulated at approximately 1 GHz.<> |
