Design and Fabrication of Suspended Indium Phosphide Waveguides for MEMS-Actuated Optical Buffering
in IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics
| Description | We have developed a new technique to fabricate MEMS structures in III-V semiconductor materials. This is important because such materials allow us to include optical gain in our structures - something not possible using conventional silicon MEMS |
| Exploitation Route | Industry could use our techniques to produce a variety of III-V optical MEMS |
