Objectives
1. To develop high-efficiency photonic crystal edge-emitting light-emitting diodes on GaN thin-film membranes from GaN-on-Si materials. 2. To develop photonic components such as waveguides on GaN thin-film membranes. 3. To integrate active (such as LEDs) and passive (such as waveguides) components on the same GaN membranous platform. 4. To demonstrate applications of the integrated GaN membranous platform such as optical communications.
