    摘要: The present invention provides a monolithic piezoelectrically-tunable optoelectronic device structure which includes an epitaxial piezoelectric material that is monolithically integrated with an optical device, such as a laser structure or a photodetector structure for example. In alternate embodiments, the epitaxial piezoelectric material may be monolithically integrated either above or below the active layer of the optical device or may be positioned adjacent to the optical device. A vertical cavity surface emitting laser diode which monolithically integrates a piezoelectric thin-film exhibits high tunability and improved performance.

    摘要: Light emitting devices (262) and optically-active material (264) can be formed overlying monocrystalline substrates such as large silicon wafers (266) using a compliant substrate for growing the devices (262). One way to achieve the formation of a compliant substrate includes first growing an accommodating buffer layer on a silicon wafer (266). The accommodating buffer layer is a layer of monocrystalline oxide spaced apart from the silicon wafer by an amorphous interface layer of silicon oxide. The amorphous interface layer dissipates strain and permits the growth of a high quality monocrystalline oxide accommodating buffer layer.

    摘要: High-density metal-insulator transition field effect transistors are grown on an advanced substrate using buried channel or surface channel designs. With respect to the advanced substrate, high quality epitaxial layers of monocrystalline materials can be grown overlying monocrystalline substrates such as large silicon wafers by forming a compliant substrate for growing the monocrystalline layers. An accommodating buffer layer comprises a layer of monocrystalline oxide spaced apart from the silicon wafer by an amorphous interface layer of silicon oxide. The amorphous interface layer dissipates strain and permits the growth of a high quality monocrystalline oxide accommodating buffer layer. The accommodating buffer layer is lattice matched to both the underlying silicon wafer and the overlying monocrystalline material layer. Any lattice mismatch between the accommodating buffer layer and the underlying silicon substrate is taken care of by the amorphous interface layer. In addition, formation of a compliant substrate may include utilizing surfactant enhanced epitaxy, epitaxial growth of single crystal silicon onto single crystal oxide, and epitaxial growth of Zintl phase materials.

    摘要: High quality epitaxial layers of monocrystalline piezoelectric materials (106) and acousto-optic materials (108) can be grown overlying monocrystalline substrates (102) such as large silicon wafers by forming a compliant substrate for growing the monocrystalline layers. One way to achieve the formation of a compliant substrate includes first growing an accommodating buffer layer (104) on a silicon wafer (102). The accommodating buffer layer (104) is a layer of monocrystalline oxide spaced apart from the silicon wafer by an amorphous interface layer of silicon oxide (110). The amorphous interface layer dissipates strain and permits the growth of a high quality monocrystalline oxide accommodating buffer layer. Acousto-Optic devices (1018) may be formed using the piezoelectric materials (106) and the acousto-optic materials (108) and integrated with devices formed within the substrate (102) or other devices (1016, 1018) formed using other epitaxially grown monocrystalline layers.
