Description

Multi-layer structured spot-size converter and implementation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of photonic chips, and particularly relates to a spot size converter technology.
Background
The photonic chip is a chip integrated with various complex optical waveguide structures, such as a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, a directional coupler, an array waveguide grating, a micro-ring and the like. These chips can be made of a variety of functional materials such as silicon-on-insulator (SOI), silicon nitride, thin film lithium niobate, etc., and can serve a variety of functions such as filtering, modulation, beam splitting, switching, etc. They have important applications in the fields of optical communication, optical sensing, optical information processing and the like, and are one of the key devices in these fields. In recent years, with the rapid increase in demand from 5G, optical communication backbone and access networks, and data centers, photonic technology has rapidly developed. At present, modulators based on silicon photonic technology have been applied to data centers, photonic chips based on silicon nitride photonic technology for optical information processing related to optical delay, optical filtering and the like are attracting attention, and photonic chips based on thin-film lithium niobate photonic technology for optical modulation and optical frequency comb are more of the army protuberant, and become research hotspots in recent years.
The photonic chips have a common characteristic that the related waveguides are small in size, and the thickness and the width of the waveguide are usually less than 1 micrometer, which is often called as micro-nano waveguide. The mode field of these micro-nano waveguides has a large mismatch with the mode field of a single-mode fiber (the core diameter is about 8 microns), which causes a large mode field mismatch loss when these photonic chips are coupled with the single-mode fiber to realize the input/output of optical signals, and hinders the practical use of the chips. To solve this problem, researchers have proposed two main approaches, one is to use a grating coupler and the other is to use a spot (or mode size) converter. The mode spot converter is manufactured at an input/output waveguide of the photonic chip, the mode field of the mode spot converter is matched with the mode field of the optical fiber at the input end, and the mode field of the mode spot converter is matched with the mode field of the micro-nano waveguide of the photonic chip at the output end, so that the conversion from the mode field of the optical fiber to the mode field of the micro-nano waveguide is realized, and the coupling efficiency is increased. Compared with a grating converter, the spot-size converter can realize higher coupling efficiency and lower polarization-dependent loss, and a simpler chip packaging technology is a main mode for realizing high-efficiency optical fiber and micro-nano structure optical waveguide coupling. Currently, there are many reports of the design and experimental work of spot size converters, which are basically implemented based on a waveguide with a horizontal tapered structure placed in the center of the converter. The tapered waveguide is divided into two categories according to the position relative to the optical fiber, wherein one category is the inverted cone-shaped spot size converter, and the other category is the forward cone-shaped spot size converter. The inverted cone-shaped spot size converter has a narrow width at one end (input end) connected with an optical fiber and a wide width at one end (output end) connected with a micro-nano chip functional area, and the forward cone-shaped spot size converter is opposite to the reverse cone-shaped spot size converter, namely the forward cone-shaped spot size converter has a wide input end and then gradually narrows until the forward cone-shaped spot size converter is equal to the waveguide width of the micro-nano chip functional area. In principle, in order to achieve high coupling efficiency, the width of the tapered waveguide at the input end of the inverted cone-shaped spot size converter should be as narrow as possible, usually at least less than 200 nm, and the tapered waveguide should be placed in the center of the spot size converter, however, the implementation of the width and placement position of the waveguide puts extremely high requirements on the process technology, and the process technology of secondary alignment and photoetching with high precision is required, which results in low yield of devices and increases the cost of chips. In comparison, the forward tapered spot size converter does not need to manufacture a waveguide as narrow as 200 nm, but still has a higher requirement on the symmetry of the tapered waveguide placement of the converter, so although the process difficulty is reduced, a high-precision secondary alignment and lithography technology is still required, and the cost of the device is also increased.
Finally, it should be pointed out that most of the reported spot size converters are applied to silicon photonic chips, and in the field of emerging thin film lithium niobate photonic chips at present, the research on the relevant spot size converters is still less, and no spot size converter suitable for mass production is successfully developed, so that the development of the relevant research and industry is greatly hindered.
