Abstract
An electro-optic polymer semiconductor integrated circuit includes one or more doped regions configured to drive one or more electrodes, and the electrodes are configured to drive a juxtaposed electro-optic core. The assembly may include a planarization layer disposed at least partially coplanar with the electrodes. The circuit may include an integrated multiplexer, driver configured to receive a signal from the multiplexer, at least one high speed electrode configured to be driven by the driver and modulate light energy passed through a hyperpolarizable poled chromophore regions disposed near the high speed electrode. The circuit may include a calibration storage circuit. The circuit may include, during fabrication, structures to provide voltage to a buried electrode and a shield to prevent damage from the poling field.
