Abstract :
The integration of GaAs MESFET circuits with InP components using epitaxial lift-off (ELO) technology is discussed. Specific ELO problems (film-substrate isolation, alignment) and solutions as well as the various ways to integrate MESFETs on InP are described. The fabrication of a long wavelength OEIC, in which a GaAs ELO MESFET is integrated with an InP 2×2 buried waveguide optical switch (fully interconnected oil chip), is presented
