摘要: Embodiments of the invention relate to an electro-optic device comprising a first region of silicon semiconductor material and a second region of III-V semiconductor material. A waveguide of the optical device is formed in part by a ridge in the second region. An optical mode of the waveguide is laterally confined by the ridge of the second region and vertically confined by a vertical boundary included in the first region. The ridge structure further serves as a current confinement structure over the active region of the electro-optic device, eliminating the need for implantation or other structures that are known to present reliability problems during manufacturing. The lack of “voids” and implants in electro-optic devices according to embodiments of the invention leads to better device reliability, process repeatability and improved mechanical strength.

摘要: An apparatus and method electrically pumping a hybrid evanescent laser. For one example, an apparatus includes an optical waveguide disposed in silicon. An active semiconductor material is disposed over the optical waveguide defining an evanescent coupling interface between the optical waveguide and the active semiconductor material such that an optical mode to be guided by the optical waveguide overlaps both the optical waveguide and the active semiconductor material. A current injection path is defined through the active semiconductor material and at least partially overlapping the optical mode such that light is generated in response to electrical pumping of the active semiconductor material in response to current injection along the current injection path at least partially overlapping the optical mode.

摘要: In the prior art, tunable lasers utilizing silicon-based tunable ring filters and III-V semiconductor-based gain regions required the heterogeneous integration of independently formed silicon and III-V semiconductor based optical elements, resulting in large optical devices requiring a complex manufacturing process (e.g., airtight packaging to couple the devices formed on different substrates, precise alignment for the elements, etc.). Embodiments of the invention eliminate the need for bulk optical elements and hermetic packaging, via the use of hybridized III-V/silicon gain regions and silicon optical components, such as silicon wavelength filters and stabilized wavelength references, thereby reducing the size and manufacturing complexity of tunable lasing devices.
