Abstract

Lateral integration of optoelectronic devices comprising strained multiple quantum well (MQW) structures can most successfully be accomplished by selective area epitaxy using metal organic molecular beam epitaxy (MOMBE). We optimized the growth parameters with respect to a planar butt coupling and sharp, flat MQW interfaces in an integrated MQW laser / MQW modulator structure. Defect generation in metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) overgrown cladding layers is analyzed and shown to contain information about the quality of the buried butt coupling. A ridge waveguide structure has successfully been fabricated from an optimized integrated laser / modulator structure.
