Abstract:
1. Nano-photonic communication link apparatus comprising the combination of: an elongated optical waveguide member of selected infrared-wavelength-related length, width and depth nano-scale physical dimensions; said elongated optical waveguide member including a plurality of lengthwise dispersed periodic cavity apertures depth wise received therein, the plurality of lengthwise dispersed periodic cavity apertures including an optically resonant waveguide cavity structure wherein successive groups of said lengthwise dispersed periodic cavity apertures form optical reflector elements; said cavity apertures including periodic table group IV containing heterostructure filling material therein; a plurality of central trench region inclusive similar resonant wavelength characterized active transducer regions each of distinguishable material composition dispersed in end regions and central region lengthwise segregation along said elongated optical waveguide member; said active transducer regions also including a resonant wavelength selecting one of a small composition difference material characteristic and a similar material composition with differing physical strain characteristic; an end region one of said active transducer regions comprising a laterally disposed electrically pumped PIN diode electroluminescent laser device optically coupling via said elongated optical waveguide member with remaining of said active transducer regions; and laterally extending electron and hole injecting transducer electrical signal communicating wing member appendages contiguous each of said active transducer regions.
