Light source for integrated silicon photonics
Abstract:
A photonics device includes a silicon wafer including an upper surface region, a trench region, and a ridge structure. The ridge structure electrically isolates the upper surface region from the trench region. A laser diode chip flip-bonded onto the silicon wafer includes an electrode region bonded with the upper surface region, a gain region bonded with the trench region, and an isolation region bonded with the ridge structure. The isolation region electrically isolates the gain region from the electrode region. A conductor layer arranged between the silicon wafer and the laser diode chip includes a first section electrically connecting the gain region to a first electrode of the photonics device and a second section configured to electrically connect the electrode region to a second electrode of the photonics device. The first section is electrically isolated from the second section by the isolation region.
