ABSTRACT:
A chip for integrating functions performed by micro-optics and RF circuits including at least one optical function module that receives an optical signal and performs at least one of a plurality of optical functions. A RF function module that receives a RF signal and perform at least one of a plurality of RF functions. The at least one optical function module and the RF function module provides a monolithic integration of optics and RF circuits on the chip.
