Abstract
The realisation of microoptical devices is strictly correlated to the development of new materials and technologies. Simple processing techniques and multifunctionallity of the materials is mostly not available by a single but only by the combination of several materials. Materials which are used nowadays for optical applications are inorganic glasses, silicon, lithium niobate, semiconductor materials and organic polymers. For integration, these different materials have to be combined on a single substrate, which leads to very complex and cost intensive processing techniques. The industrial development of high performance materials with high development costs is strongly limited by small market volumes, if the added value of down stream systems based on these materials cannot be included.
