    Abstract: A method and structure for producing lasers having good optical wavefront characteristics, such as are needed for optical storage includes providing a laser wherein an output beam emerging from the laser front facet is essentially unobstructed by the edges of the semiconductor chip in order to prevent detrimental beam distortions. The semiconductor laser structure is epitaxially grown on a substrate with at least a lower cladding layer, an active layer, an upper cladding layer, and a contact layer. Dry etching through a lithographically defined mask produces a laser mesa of length lc and width bm. Another sequence of lithography and etching is used to form a ridge structure with width w on top of the mesa. The etching step also forming mirrors, or facets, on the ends of the laser waveguide structures. The length ls and width bs of the chip can be selected as convenient values equal to or longer than the waveguide length lc and mesa width bm, respectively. The waveguide length and width are selected so that for a given defect density D, the yield YD is larger than 50%.

    Abstract: A method of forming multiple SOI wafers from a plurality of individual wafers each having a first side and a second side. The method includes forming an oxide surface on the first side on each of the plurality of individual wafers and forming a hydrogen rich region at a preselected depth on the second side on each of the plurality of individual wafers. The wafers are then bonded into a stacked configuration and heat treated to fracture the wafers at the hydrogen rich regions. This fracture forms at least two SOI wafers.

    Abstract: An electrical connector or interposer for making connection in a high density device electronic environment. The connector is made of a high density array of nickel columns held in a layer of polyimide with each column extending beyond the opposing surfaces of said layer of polyimide. The connector may be used to make temporary or permanent connection to electrical contacts without alignment. Connection may be accomplished by loading forces sufficient to form either an indentation or a penetration of solder ball contacts. Contact to a single chip or a full wafer of chips is facilitated for testing.

    Abstract: Semiconductor photonic device surfaces are covered with a dielectric or a metal protective layer. The protective layer covers the entire device, including regions near facets at active regions, to prevent bare or unprotected semiconductor regions, thereby to form a very high reliability etched facet photonic device.

    Abstract: Long semiconductor laser cavities are placed in relative short length chips through the use of total internal reflection (TIR) surfaces formed through etched facets. In one embodiment, a laser cavity is formed along the perimeter edges of a rectangular semiconductor chip by using three 45° angled TIR facets to connect four legs of a ridge or buried heterostructure (BH) waveguide that defines the laser cavity. In other embodiments, even more TIR facets and waveguide legs or sections are employed to make even longer laser cavities in the shape of rectangular or quadrilateral spirals. These structures are limited in the spacing of adjacent waveguide sections, which if too small, can cause undesirable coupling between the sections. However, use of notches etched between the adjacent sections have been shown to decrease this coupling effect.
