International audienceAn oxide-free heteroepitaxial bonding of InP-clad GaInAs quantum wells on Si showing an atomicplane-thick reconstruction across the InP-Si interface and no degradation of the quantum wellsluminescence is demonstrated. Several InP surface preparation procedures have been investigated toensure an oxide-free bonding. Such a bonding procedure without oxide or metal mediation allowsembedding very-high-index-contrast nanostructuration within optic and optoelectronic integrateddevices, thus enabling tailored designs enhancing dedicated optical functions. Heteroepitaxialbonding is also similarly obtained on nanopatterned Si surface.V
