Abstract

An optical monitoring system for III-V integrated circuit wafers utilizes an optical transmitter/receiver assembly formed in the wafer at an early stage in the fabrication process. The optical transmitter is then activated and the optical output signal is monitored during subsequent processing steps, such as ion implantation and layer deposition to assess the quality of the process. In one embodiment, the monitoring system is useful as an endpoint detection process.
