Abstract :
Summary form only given. The guiding principles used in the design and fabrication of the Lucent Technologies electroabsorption (EA)-modulated device are discussed. They were designed to generate detailed understanding of modulator and laser quantum well design as they are linked through selective area growth (SAG) oxide pad geometry, and, using appropriate characterization techniques, ensure the equivalence of SAG and non-SAG crystal quality.
