Radially and angularly polarize adjustable column vector OAM transmitting chips and preparation method thereof
Technical field
It, can more particularly, to a kind of radially and angularly polarize the present invention relates to optic communication or quantum information process field Column vector OAM transmitting chips of tune and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Light beam with helical phase wavefront can carry eigenfunction orbital angular momentum, and photon topological charge number is free by space Degree determines.Photon trajectory angular momentum(OAM)Due to its infinite number of eigen mode, information capacity theoretically can be infinitely expanded, Provide new photon information degree of freedom.Therefore the OAM light beams of carrying photon trajectory angular momentum are being widely used in light and are leading to In the applications such as letter and quantum information processing.On the other hand, compared to generally existing in nature space uniform light beam such as Linear polarization and elliptical polarization light beam have the column vector beam of column symmetry electric field polarization distribution, particularly radial and angular polarization Light beam has special focus characteristics, has in fields such as high-resolution imaging, nano particle manipulation and Terahertz Technologies huge Development and show its application potential.
And column vector OAM light beams have the polarization characteristic of column symmetry due to carrying above-mentioned photon trajectory angular momentum, in light Sub- logic gates and the processing of Higher Dimensional Metric sub-information etc. show more multifarious application prospect.The light is generated at present The technology of beam is mainly using discrete component, such as wave plate, spiral phase plate and q plates etc., the drawback is that size is big and collects It is low into spending.And the on piece silicon substrate developed in recent years integrates OAM ballistic devices, and the light of period profile is placed in the inside of silicon waveguide Grid are as scattering object, and by the OAM light beams of the Mode Coupling in micro-loop waveguide to free space transmission, topological charge number can pass through letter Single change input resonance wavelength is adjusted, and has the advantages such as the good and easy adjusting of high integration, stability, but it generates OAM Light beam can carry unpurified angular polarization state, and polarization state is non-adjustable.It therefore can be to the OAM of the light beam of generation and column vector The single on piece solution that polarization carries out Independent adjustable is still not mature enough.
The content of the invention
The present invention can not be only to photon trajectory angular momentum and the progress of radial direction/angular polarization state to solve existing on piece scheme The defects of vertical adjustment, provides one kind and radially and angularly polarizes adjustable column vector OAM transmitting chips, which can be to device The photon trajectory angular momentum and radial direction/angular polarization state of the OAM light beams of generation carry out independent adjustment, possess very broad application Prospect.
To achieve the above object, the technical solution taken of the present invention is:
Adjustable column vector OAM transmitting chips are radially and angularly polarized, the micro-loop waveguide integrated including on piece and coupling straight wave guide, And it is opened in the angular grating array that being lost by light engraving in micro-loop waveguide is formed.
In said program, the radial electric field component of TE basic modes boundary above micro-loop waveguide in micro-loop waveguide under cylindrical coordinate Account for leading at face, and angular electric field strength can be neglected.On the contrary, the angular electric field component of TM basic modes boundary above micro-loop waveguide Face accounts for leading, and radial electric field intensity is very faint.When incident light is TE patterns, the angular grating that is opened in micro-loop waveguide Array will mainly couple radial electric field component and generate radial direction OAM light beams to free space;Similarly, when incident light is TM patterns When the device will generate angular OAM light beams.Meanwhile micro-loop waveguide is used to carry out wavelength selection and orbital angular momentum to emission spectrum Topological charge regulation and control, achieve the purpose that regulate and control photon trajectory angular momentum.Therefore, which can be by simply adjusting incident light Polarization state and wavelength realize the adjusting of photon trajectory angular momentum and column vector polarization state.
Meanwhile the system of adjustable column vector OAM transmitting chips is radially and angularly polarized the present invention also provides more than one Preparation Method, specific scheme are as follows:
S1. growing silicon oxide layer on substrate, then by chemical vapor process on silicon oxide layer deposited silicon nitride layer, and revolve Apply negative photoresist;
S2. electron beam exposure is carried out after spin coating photoresist, suitable overexposure is carried out to micro-loop waveguide and improves exposure dose, it is micro- There is overexposure in correspondence position where the angular grating array in ring waveguide top, and couples straight wave guide then normal exposure;After development, Due to overexposure, the residual photoresist at angular grating array forms smooth inverted cone-shaped structure;
S3. micro-loop waveguide and coupling straight wave guide structure are etched completely after plasma etch process;Due to angular grating The barrier effect of photoresist is remained at array, light engraving loses to form angular grating array in micro-loop waveguide.
S4. the photoresist in O2 plasma removal devices is utilized.
Compared with prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:
In scheme provided by the invention, micro-loop waveguide is designed to support TE patterns and TM patterns simultaneously, and orbital angular momentum is led to It crosses change input wavelength and changes topological charge number, then determine to be transmitted to the OAM light beams of free space by the polarization state of input light Column vector polarization state, the orbital angular momentum and polarization state of the OAM light beams of final device transmitting can be individually adjusted.Pass through Chip can be prepared by single etch using preparation method provided by the invention, chip can partly be led in general Extensive flow production, has larger application prospect on body micro Process platform.
