It will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art that the present application may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and processes are not set forth in detail in order to avoid obscuring the description of the present application with unnecessary detail. Thus, the present application is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed herein.
In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
In this embodiment, an optical device monitoring and calibrating system is provided, which may be used for optical device monitoring and calibrating, for example, an apparatus for monitoring loss of an optical device, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an optical device monitoring and calibrating system according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, including: an optical device under test and a monitoring device.
The optical device to be tested is connected with an input waveguide and an output waveguide. The input waveguide and the output waveguide enable the optical signal to be input into the optical device to be tested, and the optical signal can be output from the optical device to be tested, so that the monitoring and calibration of the optical device to be tested are facilitated.
The monitoring device includes a first monitoring waveguide and a second monitoring waveguide. The first monitoring waveguide is provided with an input grating for inputting an optical signal. The second monitoring waveguide is provided with an output grating for outputting optical signals. Specifically, the monitoring signal is input through the input grating, and is output through the output grating after passing through the optical device to be detected, so that the monitoring signal can be input into the optical device to be detected through the monitoring device so as to realize monitoring and calibration of the optical device to be detected.
And a first polymer is arranged between the first monitoring waveguide and the input waveguide, so that the first monitoring waveguide is coupled and conducted with the input waveguide. And a second polymer is arranged between the second monitoring waveguide and the output waveguide, so that the second monitoring waveguide is coupled and conducted with the output waveguide. Because the existence of the first polymer enables the monitoring signal to be input into the input waveguide from the first monitoring waveguide, and the existence of the second polymer enables the signal to be output into the second monitoring waveguide from the output waveguide, the first polymer and the second polymer enable the optical device monitoring and calibration system to operate, so that the monitoring and calibration functions of the optical device can be realized.
And monitoring and/or calibrating the optical device to be measured according to the optical signal input by the input grating and the optical signal output by the output grating. Specifically, the optical device to be measured is calibrated by the optical signal output by the output grating and the optical signal input by the input grating. For example, by inputting a red-blue mixed light, the optical device to be tested is used for filtering red light, and whether the optical device is damaged or not is calibrated through the color of the output color light. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the above embodiments of the present invention are not intended to limit the present invention, and other monitoring and calibration methods are within the scope of the present invention.
The prior art lacks a technology for monitoring and calibrating a key optical device in a large-scale optical network. In the embodiment of the invention, the monitoring and calibration of the key optical device are realized through the optical device monitoring and calibration system, and the problem that the monitoring and calibration of the optical device in a large-scale optical network in the prior art is lacked is solved. The embodiment of the invention can directly calibrate and monitor a single device in a large-scale integrated chip and can also be used as a wafer-level test means.
To illustrate how the first polymer and the second polymer are added, in an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 2a, the cladding between the first monitor waveguide and the input waveguide has a first deep groove and the cladding between the second monitor waveguide and the output waveguide has a second deep groove. As shown in fig. 2b, the first deep trench and the second deep trench are used for placing the first polymer and the second polymer. In particular, in order to protect the waveguide from external interference, the waveguide core needs to be surrounded by a cladding layer outside the waveguide core. A first deep trench is formed by etching away a portion of the cladding layer between the first monitor waveguide and the input waveguide, and a second deep trench is formed by etching away a portion of the cladding layer between the second monitor waveguide and the output waveguide. And filling the first polymer and the second polymer into the first deep groove and the second deep groove respectively, and curing to ensure that the first monitoring waveguide is coupled and conducted with the input waveguide and the second monitoring waveguide is coupled and conducted with the output waveguide. The first polymer and the second polymer are added through the first deep groove and the second deep groove, so that the shape, the length and the width of the first polymer and the second polymer are easy to control. In addition, when the polymers are added into the deep groove, the first polymer and the second polymer can cover the cladding, and the preparation difficulty is reduced.
In an alternative embodiment, the first polymer and the second polymer are erasable. Specifically, after the first polymer and the second polymer are added and cured, light in the optical network is input from the input waveguide, and if the first polymer and the second polymer are not removed, the light can be coupled into the first monitoring waveguide and cannot enter the optical device to be tested, or less light is input into the optical device to be tested, so that the optical device to be tested is isolated, after the test is completed, the original function of the optical device to be tested can be restored by erasing the first polymer and the second polymer, the performance of a chip is not influenced at all, and further the control of an optical path is realized by controlling whether the first polymer and the second polymer are filled, so that the monitoring and calibration of the optical device to be tested are realized.
To illustrate the core and cladding of the waveguides, in an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the core layers of the first monitor waveguide, the second monitor waveguide, the input waveguide, and the output waveguide are composed of a high refractive index material, and the cladding layers of the first monitor waveguide, the second monitor waveguide, the input waveguide, and the output waveguide are composed of a low refractive index material. Specifically, the waveguide is generally composed of a core layer with a high refractive index and a cladding layer with a low refractive index surrounding the core layer, so as to form an optical waveguide effect, and most of optical signals are transmitted in the core layer in a constrained manner. The waveguide structure ensures that light is stably transmitted in the waveguide, optical signal loss is avoided, and the transmission efficiency of optical signals is improved. In addition, the cladding layer is used for protecting the waveguide from external environment interference and also provides support for electrode manufacturing of the integrated optical chip.
To illustrate the refractive indices of the first polymer and the second polymer, in an alternative embodiment, the refractive indices of the first polymer and the second polymer are both greater than the refractive index of air. Specifically, as shown in fig. 4a and 4b, when the medium between the first monitoring waveguide and the input waveguide and the medium between the second monitoring waveguide and the output waveguide are air, since the refractive index of air is small, the optical signal in the first monitoring waveguide is difficult to enter the input waveguide, and the optical signal in the output waveguide is difficult to enter the second monitoring waveguide, so that 0 coupling of the first monitoring waveguide and the input waveguide, that is, input and output of the optical signal in the first monitoring waveguide, and 0 coupling of the second monitoring waveguide and the output waveguide, that is, input and output of the optical signal in the output waveguide are achieved. When the medium between the first monitoring waveguide and the input waveguide is a first polymer, and the medium between the second monitoring waveguide and the output waveguide is a second polymer, the refractive indexes of the first polymer and the second polymer are larger than that of air, so that the optical signal in the first monitoring waveguide can be coupled into the input waveguide, namely the optical signal is input by the first monitoring waveguide and output by the input waveguide, and the optical signal in the output waveguide can be coupled into the second monitoring waveguide, namely the optical signal is input by the output waveguide and output by the second monitoring waveguide.
In an alternative embodiment, the coupling length of the first monitoring waveguide to the input waveguide is within a first predetermined range such that the efficiency with which the optical signal is coupled from the first monitoring waveguide into the input waveguide is a first specified efficiency. The coupling length of the output waveguide and the second monitoring waveguide is set to be a second preset range, so that the efficiency of the optical signal coupled into the second monitoring waveguide from the output waveguide is a second specified efficiency. Specifically, by controlling the increase of the coupling length, that is, controlling the increase of the length of the first polymer after filling and curing, the light coupled into the input waveguide from the first monitoring waveguide is enhanced, that is, the efficiency of coupling the optical signal into the input waveguide from the first monitoring waveguide is improved, and similarly, by controlling the increase of the length of the second polymer, the light coupled into the first monitoring waveguide from the input waveguide is enhanced, that is, the efficiency of coupling the optical signal into the first monitoring waveguide from the input waveguide is improved. Therefore, the coupling efficiency of the first monitoring waveguide into the input waveguide can reach a certain range by controlling the coupling length of the first monitoring waveguide and the input waveguide within a range. For example, when the coupling length of the first monitor waveguide and the input waveguide is between 98 microns and 102 microns, the first specified efficiency of the optical signal coupled into the input waveguide by the first monitor waveguide is greater than 99%, and similarly, the coupling length of the output waveguide and the second monitor waveguide can be controlled within a certain range, and the second specified efficiency of the optical signal coupled into the first monitor waveguide by the output waveguide is determined. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the preset range of the coupling length cannot be specifically fixed in a specific range due to the influence of many factors, such as the material of the first polymer and the second polymer, the length of the first polymer and the second polymer, the width of the first polymer and the second polymer, and the length of the waveguide, etc., and therefore, the above range is only used to illustrate the relationship between the coupling length range and the coupling efficiency of the optical signal, and is not limited to the embodiment of the present invention, and other coupling length ranges are within the protection scope of the present invention. For example, when the materials of the first polymer and the second polymer are changed, so that the coupling length is between 78 micrometers and 82 micrometers, the coupling-in/out efficiency of the optical signal is greater than 99%. In addition, the predetermined range of coupling lengths of the first polymer and the second polymer may be different.
To illustrate the monitoring and calibration of the optical device, in an alternative embodiment, the ratio of the optical signal output by the output grating to the input optical signal of the input grating is used for monitoring and/or calibration of the optical device under test. Specifically, the optical device to be measured is calibrated by the ratio of the optical signal output by the output grating to the optical signal input by the input grating. For example, after the input grating inputs the monitoring signal, the coupling length is controlled so that the monitoring signal in the first monitoring waveguide can be completely guided into the input waveguide, and the optical signal in the output waveguide can be completely guided into the second monitoring waveguide, and further when the optical signal is output through the output grating, the ratio of the optical signal output by the output grating to the monitoring signal is less than 1, and then the optical device can be calibrated to have optical signal loss, and the loss is-10 log (b/a) dB, where a is the monitoring signal input by the input grating; b is the optical signal output by the output grating.
To further illustrate the monitoring and calibration of the optical device, in an alternative embodiment, the optical switch is calibrated by the optical device monitoring and calibration system of an embodiment of the present invention. The calibration of the optical switch is usually used for calibrating the switching voltage of the optical switch, but the calibration is difficult to realize in a large-scale optical network, so that the calibration of the switching voltage of the optical switch can be realized by changing the voltage and monitoring the power change of an output optical signal of the output grating simultaneously in the embodiment of the invention.

step S101, arranging a first polymer between a first monitoring waveguide and an input waveguide of an optical device to be detected, so that the first monitoring waveguide is coupled and conducted with the input waveguide;
