  • Abstract
    A strained GaAs/AlGaAs/InGaAs MQW laser has been monolithically integrated with GaAs MESFETs in a differential pair configuration to form a transmitter circuit. The structure used a single epitaxial growth step in which the laser was grown on top of the MESFET. The circuits operate with bandwidths as high as 3.4 GHz
