Abstract :
We review major breakthroughs in realizing silicon-based active components by heterogeneous integration with III-V semiconductors, or nonlinear organic materials. In more detail we describe examples of our concepts and technological approach addressing this goal. This includes designs for widely tunable filters and new routes for heteroepitaxy and selective area growth of InP on silicon.
