ABSTRACT:
Semiconductor-on-glass integrated circuits may include photodetectors which are stimulated by backside light passing through the glass substrate; this provides information reception by optical communication. Bipolar and field effect transistors are shielded from the light by their buried layers. Further, LEDs integrated together with photodetectors permits all optical communication among glass substrate chips. Alternative uses of glass substrate include thermal isolation for efficient thermally regulated integrated circuits.
