摘要:
A low thermal impedance optoelectronic device includes an optical cavity adjacent a low thermal impedance DBR that provides improved heat dissipation and temperature performance. The thermal impedance of the DBR may be reduced by increasing the relative or absolute thickness of a layer of high thermal conductivity material relative to a layer of low thermal conductivity material for at least a portion of the mirror periods. The thermal impedance may also be reduced by increasing the distance between phonon scattering surfaces by increasing the thickness of the high thermal conductivity layer, the low thermal conductivity layer or both.
摘要:
Methods for integrating wide-gap semiconductors with synthetic diamond substrates are disclosed. Diamond substrates are created by depositing synthetic diamond onto a nucleating layer deposited or formed on a layered structure including at least one layer of gallium nitride, aluminum nitride, silicon carbide, or zinc oxide. The resulting structure is a low stress process compatible with wide-gap semiconductor films, and may be processed into optical or high-power electronic devices. The diamond substrates serve as heat sinks or mechanical substrates.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for burning in a semiconductor wafer having a plurality of active devices utilizes temporary conductive interconnect layers to separately couple at least a portion of the anodes of the active devices together as well as at least a portion of the cathodes of the devices together. A simplified probed pad, having a reduced number of contacts may then be utilized to apply a substantially constant voltage or current to the devices. The temporary conductive interconnect layer may be patterned to include device level resistors or array level resistors that may be used to mitigate the effects of short circuits or open circuits on the processing of the devices.

摘要:
Method for producing composite wafers with thin high-quality semiconductor films atomically attached to synthetic diamond wafers is disclosed. Synthetic diamond substrates are created by depositing synthetic diamond onto a nucleating layer deposited on bulk semiconductor wafer which has been prepared to allow separation of the thin semiconductor film from the remaining bulk semiconductor wafer. The remaining semiconductor wafer is available for reuse. The synthetic diamond substrate serves as heat spreader and a mechanical substrate.

摘要:
A folded cavity semiconductor optical amplifier is provided that includes a first mirror disposed on a substrate of semiconductor material and an active region formed thereon consisting of an optical cavity with a gain medium. The optical cavity being disposed adjacent the first mirror. A second mirror is formed and disposed on the active region on a surface opposite the first mirror. The active region of the amplifier includes input and output portions formed in one or both mirrors. The input and output portions formed from layers of reduced reflectivity relative to the first or second mirror and a longitudinal waveguide connecting the input and output portions to allow for light to be amplified to enter at the input port, travel through the vertical cavity and longitudinal waveguide, and exit as amplified light at the output portion of the waveguide structure.
