An integrated optoelectronic circuit and process for making is described incorporating a photodetector and a MODFET on a chip. The chip contains a single-crystal semiconductor substrate, a buffer layer of SiGe graded in composition, a relaxed SiGe layer, a quantum well layer, an undoped SiGe spacer layer and a doped SiGe supply layer. The photodetector may be a metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) or a p-i-n device. The detector may be integrated with an n- or p-type MODFET, or both in a CMOS configuration, and the MODFET can incorporate a Schottky or insulating gate. The invention overcomes the problem of producing Si-manufacturing-compatible monolithic high-speed optoelectronic circuits for 850 nm operation by using epixially-grown Si/SiGe heterostructure layers.
