1. A process for fabricating a multilayer structure comprising:
a) growing a growth layer on a silicon substrate that is adapted and configured to permit growth of III-V materials thereon;
b) forming at least one pattern from the growth layer;
c) depositing an oxide layer on the silicon substrate;
d) transferring a silicon active layer onto the oxide layer;
e) forming a cavity through the silicon active layer and in the oxide layer above the at least one pattern to expose the growth layer; and
f) growing a III-V material in the cavity on the growth layer.
