Abstract :
We report the first fabrication of an optoelectronic integrated circuit constituted of a Ga 0.47 In 0.53 As planar photoconductive detector (suitable fbor 1.3¿m - 1.55¿m wavelength optical communication systems) associated with a n¿/n+ GaAs rib waveguide. The capabilities of such a device to detect a part of a light propagating inside the waveguide are experimentally demonstrated.
