Abstract
Loaded and unloaded ring-oscillator circuits with an electrical and su rface-normal 850 nm optical readout are fabricated using a hybrid 0.8 mu m silicon-CMOS/GaAs-AlGaAs MQW process. Measurements of the oscilla tion frequency of these circuits show total capacitance associated wit h the flip-chip-bonded optical MQW modulators as low as 52fF.
