    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: Embodiments of the invention describe photonic integrated circuits (PICs) formed using simultaneous fabrication operations performed on photonic device layers. Each device of a PIC may be made from different optimized materials by growing the materials separately, cutting pieces of the different materials and bonding these pieces to a shared wafer. Embodiments of the invention bond photonic device layers so that shared (i.e., common) processing operations may be utilized to make more than one device simultaneously. Embodiments of the invention allow for simpler, more cost effective fabrication of PICs and improve photonic device performance and reliability.

    摘要: “Hybrid photonic devices” describe devices wherein the optical portion—i.e., the optical mode, comprises both the silicon and III-V semiconductor regions, and thus the refractive index of the semiconductor materials and the refractive index of the bonding layer region directly effects the optical function of the device. Prior art devices utilize an optically compliant layer that is the same material as the III-V substrate; however, during the final sub-process of the bonding process, the substrates must be removed by acids. These acids can etch into the bonding layer, causing imperfections to propagate at the interface of the bonded material, adversely affecting the optical mode shape and propagation loss of the device.Embodiments of the invention utilize a semiconductor etch-selective bonding layer that is not affected by the final stages of the bonding process (e.g., substrate removal), and thus protects the bonding interface layer from being affected.
