Abstract
Singlemode AlGaAs optical waveguides at 830 nm have been monolithically fabricated together with ion-implanted E- and D-mode GaAs MESFETs. The waveguide TE and TM propagation losses are as low as 1.5 dB/cm with <-25 dB depolarisation. E- and D-mode FETs have VT=0.26 and -0.20 V, and gm=160 and 230 mS/mm, respectively.
