Description

Sulfide-silicon nitride suspended waveguide capable of realizing forward Brillouin scattering and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductors, and particularly relates to a sulfide-silicon nitride suspended waveguide capable of realizing forward Brillouin scattering and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Stimulated brillouin scattering has wide application in the fields of microwave photon filters, microwave signal source generation, fast and slow light, optical storage, narrow linewidth lasers and the like, but most of the early researches are based on traditional backward brillouin scattering. With the development of on-chip integrated devices, brillouin integrated photonics is gaining more and more attention. Brillouin integrated photonics extends the mechanism of brillouin scattering, particularly forward brillouin. Compared with backscattering, the scattering mechanism takes part in transverse phonons, is applied to the fields of distributed sensing, Brillouin lasers, cavity enhanced amplifiers, injection locking lasers and the like, and forward Brillouin can sense the difference of the acoustic resistance properties of the environment, so that the scattering mechanism has important potential application value in the fields of distributed acoustic resistance sensing such as ocean detection, pollutant monitoring, leakage detection and the like, and more new application scenes are gradually explored.
At present, a material system based on-chip forward Brillouin scattering is mainly silicon-based, acoustic and optical simultaneous local areas are realized in a sub-wavelength fiber core structure by suspending a waveguide, but silicon has the characteristics of strong two-photon absorption, free carrier absorption and the like near 1550 nanometers, and simultaneously parameters such as frequency shift amount, line width and the like of Brillouin are very sensitive to the size of a silicon-based device, the change of nanometer size can cause great influence on the silicon-based device, and the change greatly limits the achievable gain and performance of the device, so that the search for other material platforms capable of realizing Brillouin is very necessary. Sulfide is widely applied in the backward Brillouin integration field due to the properties of excellent acousto-optic quality factor, negligible two-photon absorption and the like, but no report about forward Brillouin exists. The key point for realizing the forward Brillouin scattering lies in the limitation on transverse phonons, a suspension structure is generally adopted, but sulfides are soft, and the difficulty in preparing the suspension structure is high.

In order to solve the technical problems, the invention adopts the technical scheme that: a sulfide-silicon nitride suspended waveguide capable of realizing forward Brillouin scattering is composed of a silicon substrate, a silicon oxide layer, a silicon nitride film layer and a sulfide film layer from bottom to top in sequence; both sides of the sulfide thin film layer are etched with ridge-shaped structures of chalcogenide waveguides; first air grooves are etched on the sulfide thin film layer and located on two sides of the ridge-shaped structure; and a second air groove obtained by corrosion is arranged below the silicon nitride film layer and the sulfide film layer, and the first air groove is communicated with the second air groove.
Preferably, the thickness of the silicon substrate is 525 microns or 700 microns.
Preferably, the thickness of the silicon oxide layer is 2 microns to 3 microns.
Preferably, the silicon nitride film layer is positioned on the silicon oxide layer and is grown by a chemical vapor deposition technology, and the thickness of the silicon nitride film layer is 100 nm-200 nm.
Preferably, the sulfide thin film layer is positioned on the silicon nitride thin film layer and is prepared by a thermal evaporation method, the thickness of the sulfide thin film layer is 300 nanometers to 500 nanometers, the width of a ridge structure of the chalcogenide waveguide is 1 micrometer to 3 micrometers, and the etching depth is 200 nanometers to 400 nanometers.
Preferably, the width of the first air groove is 2-3 microns; the width of the second air groove is 6-10 microns.
The invention also provides a preparation method of the sulfide-silicon nitride suspended waveguide capable of realizing forward Brillouin scattering, which comprises the following steps:
s1, growing a silicon nitride film layer with the thickness of about 100-200 nanometers on a silicon substrate layer and a silicon oxide layer substrate by adopting a chemical vapor deposition method;

s4, etching the residual sulfide and silicon nitride thin film layers on the two sides of the ridge waveguide to the silicon oxide layer in the middle by using the electron beam exposure and dry etching technology again, wherein the etching width is 2-3 micrometers, and thus obtaining a first air groove;
s5, immersing the etched waveguide into a buffer solution of hydrofluoric acid, wherein the etching time is determined according to the concentration of the buffer solution until the upper-layer waveguide is etched to be suspended, and the width of a second air groove obtained through etching is 6-10 microns.
In the present invention, the chalcogenide and silicon nitride act as the core of the suspended waveguide, but since chalcogenide has a higher refractive index than silicon nitride (n)ChG~2.4,nSiNx2) so that the energy is mostly concentrated in the chalcogenide waveguide, the structure of the composite waveguide has the advantages of: (1) the sulfide waveguide is soft and is not easy to support when suspended, a silicon nitride film below the sulfide waveguide plays a supporting role in the structure, and the silicon nitride has a very low corrosion rate in a hydrofluoric acid buffer solution and can play a role in supporting the chalcogenide waveguide; (2) the suspended structure adopted by the scheme is beneficial to realizing the simultaneous limitation of the optical field and the transverse sound field, so that the forward Brillouin scattering research and application can be realized.
Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects are:
1. the invention provides a sulfide-silicon nitride suspended waveguide structure capable of realizing forward Brillouin scattering and a preparation method thereof.
2. The invention has proposed a sulfide-silicon nitride unsettled waveguide structure and its preparation method that can realize forward stimulated Brillouin scattering, because the refractive index of the silicon nitride is relatively lower, most energy is still in the sulfide waveguide, and the acoustic velocity of the sulfide is about 2200m/s, the acoustic velocity of silicon nitride is 9000m/s, the great acoustic velocity difference can realize the limitation to the acoustic field, therefore the composite material structure can realize the limitation to optical field and acoustic field at the same time, can be used for realizing forward stimulated Brillouin scattering and application in the aspects such as photomechanical, etc.;
