    摘要: Silicon Photonics (SiPh) device methods and systems include providing a PDK cell library with parameters for standard SiPh device parameterized cells (Pcells). A custom SiPh layout that includes a plurality of dummy layers defining a custom SiPh device Pcell is created. A schematic including a plurality of the standard SiPh device Pcells and the custom SiPh device Pcell is created, as well as a configuration database correlating the standard SiPh device Pcells and the custom SiPh Pcell to the schematic. The standard SiPh device Pcells and the custom SiPh Pcell are automatically placed and routed based on the configuration database. A plurality of LVS rules are determined based on the dummy layers, and conducting an LVS verification is conducted based on the LVS rules.

    摘要: An optical modulator includes a carrier and a waveguide disposed on the carrier. The waveguide includes a first optical coupling region, a second optical coupling region, first regions, and second regions. The first optical coupling region is doped with first dopants. The second optical coupling region abuts the first optical coupling region and is doped with second dopants. The first dopants and the second dopants are of different conductivity type. The first regions are doped with the first dopants and are arrange adjacent to the first optical coupling region. The first regions have respective increasing doping concentrations as distances of the first regions increase from the first optical coupling region. The second regions are doped with the second dopants and are arranged adjacent to the second optical coupling region. The second regions have respective increasing doping concentrations as distances of the second regions increase from the second optical coupling region.
