Abstract :
A 1GBit/s optical input transmitter chip has been developed to evaluate the performance of optical fibers as a communication media in high speed electronics. The transmitter chip has been fabricated in depletion mode GaAs with a one micron gate length. Optical/electrical functionality has been demonstrated at the wafer level.
