| 20090238517 | Monolithically integrated optical devices with amorphous silicon arrayed waveguidi gratings and INGaAsP gain - An optical waveguide assembly and method of forming the same is described. The optical waveguide assembly includes a waveguide, an amorphous silicon arrayed waveguide grating communicative with the waveguide, and an integrated amorphous silicon waveguide grating laser which communicatively outputs a laser output responsive to the amorphous silicon arrayed waveguide grating. The method includes providing a waveguide, providing an amorphous silicon arrayed waveguide grating communicative with the waveguide, and providing an integrated amorphous silicon waveguide grating laser which communicatively outputs a laser output responsive to the amorphous silicon arrayed waveguide grating. | 09-24-2009 |
