Abstract :
Mechanically stressed micro-beam structures are proposed to control the emission wavelength for III-V compounds on Si-on-insulator wafers. Based on the calculations for GaAs, the tuning of emission wavelength and the locking from temperature fluctuations are demonstrated by controlling the applied stress.
