Abstract

An apparatus for effecting selected aspects of optically conveyed communications treats received incoming optical signals to produce treated outgoing optical signals. The apparatus comprises a plurality of optical signal handling devices (188, 192, 202, and 232) implemented in a monolithic integrated structure arranged on a single substrate (182). The apparatus may further comprise at least one electrically driven device (198) implemented in the monolithic integrated structure. Preferably, at least a first portion of the monolithic structure is implemented in silicon, and at least a second portion of the monolithic structure is implemented in at least one compound semiconductor material.
