摘要:
Polarization modulator devices can be formed to take advantage of multi-layered semiconductor structures. 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 a 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.

A data transmitting-receiving system including both a transmitter part and a receiver part. The transmitter part transmits a modulation signal on one of the vertically and horizontally polarized waves and, at the same time, transmits a carrier on the other of the waves. The modulation signal on one of the waves is received and demodulated by the receiver part with the carrier on the other of the waves also received by the receiver part.
