Title: Monolithic integrated quantum dot photonic integrated circuits

Abstract

A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) includes a semiconductor substrate, one or more passive components, and one or more active components. The one or more passive components are fabricated on the semiconductor substrate, wherein the passive components are fabricated in a III-V type semiconductor layer. The one or more active components are fabricated on top of the one or more passive components, wherein optical signals are communicated between the one or more active components via the one or more passive components.
