Two, principle of work and technique
1. principle of work
Surface plasma wave (SPPs) is cross-polarization magnetic field surface wave, propagates, have again the high density free carrier fettered by medium along dielectric surface [7,8].Lithium niobate (LiNbO 3) there is non-linear, electrical-optical harmony-light characteristic significantly.The method making coupling crystallization covering is Direct Bonding and thinning, and Direct Bonding can be implemented at low temperatures; Direct Bonding does not relate to adhesives, the material of bonding not need Lattice Matching.
Direct Bonding needs: (1) is less than the flatness of 5nm deviation; (2) by the surface active of suitable clean and process; A good Direct Bonding causes nothing to have the seamless material interface of gross imperfection.
Various material all by Direct Bonding, can comprise lithium niobate (LiNbO 3) with self and with other material.Further, lithium niobate (LiNbO 3) can polishing, to obtain thinner layer [9,10]; Or separate thin layer with crystal ionic cutting from master wafer [11,12].Crystal ionic cuts and also directly can engage with Direct Bonding, and another substrate produces lithium niobate (LiNbO 3) thin layer [13].By this way [9-13]thin lithium niobate (the LiNbO obtained 3) crystal layer, remain its bulk property.
In the present embodiment, the structure of electrical-optical coupling hinge as shown in Figure 4.Comprise silicon (Si) substrate, silicon (Si) substrate is bonded with SiO 2layer, ground connection aluminium (Al) thin layer and cut lithium niobate (LiNbO by upper and lower z- 3) long-range surface plasma (LRSPP) sonic wave guide of gold bar band composition that covering limits, and be positioned at top lithium niobate (LiNbO 3) T-shaped Au electrode on covering.Once impressed voltage is granted between the Au electrode of the top and Al ground-electrode, due to electrooptical effect, cause at LiNbO 3occur in crystal along gold bar band propagate the modulation of guide-lighting mode.This is because, ducting the main transverse electric field component orientation of mould is perpendicular to metal band [14], namely along the z-axis of covering, by applying additional vertical electric field E(as shown in Figure 4), just can utilize lithium niobate (LiNbO 3) the most forceful electric power backscatter extinction logarithmic ratio of crystal. main and the n of mould e(i.e. LiNbO 3extraordinary refractive index) interact, n emodulated by extra electric field E, according to for LiNbO 3at λ 0=1550nm, n e=2.1377 and r 33=29.9pm/V.
Top and bottom z-cuts LiNbO 3covering, both orientations can identical also can be contrary, as shown in Figure 4.If take top and the bottom LiNbO of oppositely alignment 3covering (as shown in Figure 5), the external electric field E applied makes the refractive index of a covering increase to Δ n, and makes the refractive index of another covering reduce identical amount, like this, has occurred that the refractive index comprising 2 Δ n is asymmetric in waveguiding structure.This instead claims crosscut mould [15], force it to be radiated the covering of high index of refraction [16], as heat-photo structure [17,18]so, cause broadband intensity modulated.The top of aliging in the same way if take and bottom LiNbO 3covering, then the increase that applied external electric field E makes the refractive index of two coverings equal or reduce Δ n, so give mould phase-modulation.Based on optical analogy [19], the thickness t=20nm – 22nm of the gold bar band imbedded; Width w=0.95 μ m – 2 μm; Waveguide is made to have rational low-loss (a few dB/mm) and accessible mould size like this.Finally, the thickness of required lithium niobate covering is 10 μ m – 15 μm.
Utilize this waveguiding structure, it is integrated that following likely optimized integration electron device and photoelectric device are justified on crystalline substance at same Si.
2, main technological steps flow process
As shown in Figure 6, successfully carry out justifying brilliant bonding to make lithium columbate crystal covering, gold bar band (Au) must be embedded into the surface of lithium niobate crystal chip and be flattened, to such an extent as to the surface obtained has enough smooth (deviation is less than about 5nm).After enforcement series of process flow process, at first LiNbO 3the smooth gold bar band of the brilliant upper implantation of circle, and be finally formed as upper clad layer.Once gold bar band is embedded into, this LiNbO 3wafer is reversed and Direct Bonding to the second LiNbO 3circular wafer, will be formed as lower clad like this.2nd LiNbO 3wafer need through grinding and polishing to reach the thickness d of applicable lower clad needs, then aluminium (Al) is deposited to the basal surface of this circular wafer to form ground connection aluminium (Al) electrode, this ground connection aluminium (Al) electrode again with SiO 2thin layer connects.The LiNbO of such formation 3storehouse is the SiO of Direct Bonding extremely on si circle crystalline substance again 2on thin layer.
Then, first LiNbO 3circular wafer is through the thickness d of grinding and be polished to needed for upper clad layer.Finally, optical waveguide top Au electrode takes photoetching process to realize by depositing 1 μm of thick Au, and the width of top Au electrode is 10 μm.The final long l=4mm of optical waveguide formed thus; Wide W b=7mm(is see Fig. 2).
LiNbO 3with Si, there is different thermal expansivity, but all processing step is implemented all at low temperatures.At the initial stage of this technological process, top LiNbO 3layer is to bottom LiNbO 3layer Direct Bonding step is at room temperature carried out, and at 300 DEG C, implements annealing subsequently.All treatment steps subsequently all carry out at lower than the temperature of 150 DEG C.LiNbO 3/ Al/SiO 2storehouse is to SiO 2the direct combination of/Si is also at room temperature carried out, afterwards annealing in process under an experience low temperature.
At top and bottom LiNbO 3direct Bonding interface between covering should be seamless and do not have gross imperfection.
3, the flow process of gold bar band is embedded:
Fig. 7 shows two kinds of methods and embeds Au bands, and wherein, Fig. 7 a is based on the groove using identical photoresistance pattern etch at lithium columbate crystal and the unnecessary gold of removal.Fig. 7 b is depicted as and adopts chemical polishing (CMP).Because the chemical corrosion of lithium niobate is difficult, to such an extent as to the groove of ion beam grinding for etching, the Au entered wherein deposits subsequently.Because required institute easily realizes in steps, therefore in the present embodiment, adopt the method for Fig. 7 a.The width of Au band is 2 μm, thick 20nm.This Au band is embedded in above-mentioned long l=4mm, wide W bthe center line of=7mm optical waveguide, and the width of top Au electrode is 10 μm.
4, antenna parameter and making:
The structure of wideband microstrip disk paster unipole antenna, as shown in D in Fig. 2, comprises substrate, gold (Au) disk paster (Au) that on substrate, favourable photoetching process realizes and be attached thereto two gold (Au) microstrip lines connect.
Design parameter is as follows:
The width W of substrate: 30mm
The length L:35mm of substrate
