Abstract
An optoelectronic device and method of making the same. The device comprising: a substrate; a regrown cladding layer, on top of the substrate; and an optically active region, above the regrown cladding layer; wherein the regrown cladding layer has a refractive index which is less than a refractive index of the optically active region, such that an optical mode of the optoelectronic device is confined to the optically active region, and wherein the optically active region is formed of: SiGeSn, GeSn, InGaNAs, or InGaNAsSb.
