Abstract

An integrated optoelectronic device (1) includes a substrate (4), at least one optoelectronic component (2) provided on the substrate (4), and a waveguide (9a . . . 9n) provided on the substrate (4) and optically connected to the at least one optoelectronic component (2). The waveguide (9a . . . 9n) is made of a sol-gel glass. A method for making the integrated optoelectronic device (1) includes the steps of providing a substrate (4), providing at least one optoelectronic component (2) on the substrate (4), and providing at least one sol-gel glass waveguide (9a . . . 9n) on the substrate (4) and optically connected to the at least one optoelectronic component (2).
