本研究旨在研究新型III-V型半导体异质结构电子器件与III-V型半导体发光器件的集成。这将是一项应用研究，重点是使III-V半导体逻辑器件与III-V光发射器技术兼容，最终目标是在光学互连集成电路中使用集成逻辑器件/光发射器。在这个广泛的类别中，重点将集中在特定类别的设备上。具体而言，将研究负电阻场效应晶体管（NERFET）与异质结构激光器相结合，形成用于数字数据传输应用的小型垂直集成光发射器。

This proposed research is for the investigation of the integration of novel III-V semiconductor heterostructure electronic devices with III-V semiconductor light emitting devices. This will be applied research with an emphasis on making III-V semiconductor logic devices compatible with III-V light emitter technology, with the ultimate goal being an integrated logic device/light emitter for use in optically interconnected integrated circuits. Within this broad category emphasis will be focused on an specific category of devices. Specifically, the combining of the negative resistance field effect transistor (NERFET) with the heterostructure laser to form a compact, vertically integrated light emitter for digital data transmission applications, will be investigated.
