“…2b) is used to maximize power transmission from the passive waveguide into the laser multi-quantumwell (MQW) core. The gain of this SOA building block was determined to be 110 cm -1 at a current density of 4 kA cm -2 [2]. This high gain is due to the large number of quantum wells (8 where 4 or 5 is more conventional) and due to the tight optical confinement in the IMOS waveguides which yield a high modal field overlap with the quantum wells.…”

“…Furthermore the InP material system has the direct bandgap structure needed for the efficient generation of photons. This enables novel devices like a high-gain optical amplifier (SOA) [2], a high-speed uni-traveling-carrier photodetector (UTC-PD) [3], and an electro-optic polymer phase modulator (EOPPM) [4]. Other InP-based membrane integration schemes focus on on-chip and chip-to-chip optical interconnects and have demonstrated high efficiency lasers with low thresholds [5,6].…”

“…Laser operation of the SOA was demonstrated using both wide-band DBR gratings and 1D photonic crystals. A 610 um long 1D PhC laser [2] showed a threshold current of 20 mA (2 kA cm -2 ), output power of 1 mW, a series resistance of 5 Ω and 30 dB SMSR at 45 mA. Due to the twin-guide structure of the SOA we are free to introduce additional layers below the waveguide layer.…”

Indoor optical wireless communication (OWC) using steerable infrared beams is regarded as an important component in future 5G network. Photonic integration technologies can meet the criteria of such application, and provide low-cost, high-performance and very compact chips. In this paper, we review the recent development of photonic integration technologies suitable for indoor OWC application, and discuss in detail the current status and future opportunities of several key devices, such as the chip to free space couplers, integrated receivers and transmitters.
