Abstract
An optoelectronic or photonic CMOS transistor includes a built-in laser in either or both of the source and drain regions, or in the well regions (for depletion-mode CMOS lasers), and multiple photon sensors in the channel or well regions. The MOSFET, lasers, and photon sensors are fabricated as one integral transistor. When the MOSFET is on, the lasers are turned on. When the MOSFET is off, the lasers are off. The photonic CMOS is light-emitting device. There are various types of Photonic MOSFETs. In this paper, we will compare the Optoelectronic CMOS transistors: Depletion-mode and inversion-mode CMOS lasers.
