Abstract Recent progress is reviewed in surface-normal optoelectronic devices primarily for use in optical switching and information processing. A type of optoelectronic integrated circuit (OEIC), the surface-normal two-dimensional array, is fabricated using these devices. This improves on first-generation OEICs by featuring large-scale integration in a small area, which results in a higher production yield. It also has structures which can easily be integrated with electronic circuits and can meet multichannel requirements. This approach supports optoelectronic progress towards optical information processing.
