The optoelectronic technology is one
of the eight key points in the national science
technique developments and key techniques. The optoelectronic
industries keep sustained growth in recent years,
although they can't compare with the semiconductor
industry in the total production values, but its
growth rate is higher than the semiconductor industry.
In the science-based industrial park, its growth
rate is almost the first year by year; At 1997 the
growth rate of the optoelectronic industries was
as 41% in our country, but the domestic economic
growth rate is only 6.5%. It is thus clear that
it grows up quickly, and can be expected to be the
star industry of 21 centuries. And because the international
community is all in the development, our country
promotes this industry at this time, will be able
to have an outstanding possibility for leading in
21 centuries.
On the other hand, because the devices can be down
to micro-scale and integrated in the electron industry,
that make its manufactures have a revolution development,
then make it have a quickly and tremendous growth.
At 1969, it began to have an idea of the integrated
optics, and then the current optoelectronic techniques
are similar with electron industry in 20 years ago.
They are mature at the technique of each optoelectronic
component, but its size is again too big for each
component, then they will be packaged piece by piece
while constituting together. If the optoelectronic
technique can be down to micro-scale and integrated
just like the electron industry, then its developing
will be fast.
In recent years, the micro optoelectronic technique
is basically making use of the existing micro packaging
techniques of the semiconductor industry. And it
added some special techniques, the optical module,
or system can be assembled as an optoelectronic
integrated circuit on the same chip that is also
similar as VLSI. Its advantage is small size, the
price is low, the weight is light, and it can also
avoid the alignment problems in the optoelectronic
system. That can make the system not only simplify,
and can extend the reliability and life. It also
can be made by using of the existing semiconductor
equipments, then it don't need a twice investment.
The purpose of this project is to establish the
ability of 0.1£gm fabrication is the starting point
for this whole project. Base on this 0.1£gm fabrication
ability, the processing technique, design and integration
for a high operation frequency (f>30GHz) integrated
circuit, the optical-electron integrated circuit
of 10 Gbps fiber-optical communication, and the
development of GaN-Based quantum well laser will
be developed. We will unify to integrate other projects,
and we deliver the advance techniques to the industry
fields.
