Description

Electro-optical modulator and manufacturing method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of optical communication, in particular to an electro-optical modulator and a manufacturing method thereof.
Background
Lithium Niobate (LN) has extremely excellent electro-optic characteristics, and plays an important role in optical modulation, and is a preferred material for high-speed modulators in the field of communications. The transmission of light waves in an optical device requires that a refractive index difference exists between a waveguide core layer and a cladding layer, and the larger the refractive index difference is, the stronger the constraint capacity on a light field is. Early conventional LN devices were based on bulk LN substrates with waveguide structures fabricated by Ti ion diffusion or proton exchange, with regions after doping that produced a weak change in refractive index (less than 0.01). The waveguide structure in the form has small refractive index difference, weak optical field limiting capacity, large mode spot size (larger than 2 microns) in the waveguide and large bending radius (larger than 10 mm). Due to the large size of bulk LNs, high integration is difficult to achieve.
The problem of the oversize of the traditional bulk LN device is solved by a thin film Lithium Niobate On Insulator (LNOI). The LNOI keeps the great advantages of the traditional LN material in the aspects of electro-optic, acousto-optic and nonlinear effects and the like, and meanwhile, compared with the traditional bulk LN device, the LNOI has higher performance and smaller size, and can realize high-quality and high-integration electro-optic modulation. The LNOI adopts an etching mode to manufacture the waveguide structure, so that the light intensity limiting capability is stronger. When applied to a modulator, the electrodes can be very close to the waveguide, and the LNOI has higher modulation efficiency compared with a traditional bulk LN device.
Currently, the main design of the LNOI electro-optical modulator adopts the structure shown in fig. 1, from bottom to top, which is the substrate 1, the lower cladding 2, the waveguide 3, the first electrode 4, the second electrode 5 and the upper cladding 6. Wherein, first electrode 4 and second electrode 5 symmetric distribution are in waveguide 3 both sides, are located the coplanar, and the distance between two electrodes is generally 4 to 7um. The modulation efficiency Vpi.L of the electro-optical modulator with the push-pull working mode manufactured based on the structure is generally larger than 2 V.cm. To obtain higher modulation efficiency, the distance between the two electrodes needs to be reduced to obtain higher overlap integration of the electric and optical fields. However, when the distance between the electrodes is further decreased, the absorption loss of the electrode to the waveguide rapidly increases, as shown in fig. 2. In FIG. 2, for a single-mode waveguide structure with a LN total thickness of 600nm, a width of 1000nm, and an etching depth of 300nm, the horizontal distance Gap between the electrodes needs to be greater than 5.2 μm, and the absorption Loss of the metal electrode to the waveguide is reduced to 0.1dB/cm. Therefore, it is a technical challenge to further improve the modulation efficiency of the thin-film lithium niobate electro-optic modulator.

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
An electro-optic modulator of the present invention is described below in conjunction with fig. 3, comprising:
a substrate 1;
optionally, the substrate 1 is silicon or quartz. The substrate 1 is used for bearing the stress of the chip and ensuring the transfer processing of the chip.
A lower cladding layer 2, the lower cladding layer 2 being disposed over the substrate 1;
a first electrode 4, the first electrode 4 being disposed on one side of the lower cladding layer 2;
a waveguide 3, the waveguide 3 being disposed on the other side of the lower cladding layer 2, the height of the waveguide 3 being greater than the height of the first electrode 4;
alternatively, the thickness of one side of the lower cladding layer 2 is made smaller than that of the other side by etching, so that the height of the first electrode disposed on one side of the lower cladding layer 2 is made smaller than that of the waveguide 3 disposed on the other side of the lower cladding layer 2.
The waveguide 3 is a symmetric ridge waveguide, an asymmetric ridge waveguide or a strip waveguide. The present embodiment does not limit the type of the waveguide 3.
In fig. 3, the waveguide 3 is an asymmetric ridge waveguide, and a portion of the slab, which is on the side of the waveguide close to the first electrode 4, is etched away.
The waveguide is made of crystal material with electro-optic effect, and the ridge waveguide structure has strong transverse limitation on an optical field. A ridge waveguide can be seen as a rectangular waveguide folded with an electromagnetic field pattern similar to that of the rectangular waveguide except that the field distribution is disturbed near the ridge due to edge effects.
Compared with a rectangular waveguide with the same size, the cut-off frequency of a main mode of the ridge waveguide is low; the single-mode working frequency band is wide and can reach a plurality of octaves; the equivalent impedance is low, so the coaxial line and the microstrip line with low impedance are easily matched.

The lower cladding 2, the waveguide 3 and the upper cladding 6 constitute an optical waveguide for guiding the transmission of the optical signal to be modulated. The lower cladding layer 2 and the upper cladding layer 6 serve to longitudinally confine the optical field in the waveguide. After entering the optical waveguide, the optical signal to be modulated can only propagate in the waveguide 3, as it is limited by the upper cladding 6 and the lower cladding 2. The modulation efficiency of the push-pull electro-optic modulator based on the structure can reach 1V cm.
In the embodiment, the two electrodes are not on the same plane in the longitudinal direction, and have longitudinal offset relative to the center of the waveguide, so that the two electrodes are in a diagonal structure, and under the condition that no extra absorption loss is brought to the waveguide by the electrodes, the transverse (Z direction) distance of the two electrodes can be closer, the electric field in the waveguide can be enhanced, and the modulation efficiency can be improved.
On the basis of the above embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the upper cladding layer 6 in the present embodiment includes a first upper cladding layer 61 and a second upper cladding layer 62;
the first upper cladding layer 61 is disposed over the first electrode 4 and the waveguide 3;
as shown in fig. 4, when the thickness of one side of the lower cladding layer 2 is smaller than that of the other side, and the first electrode 4 is located on one side of the lower cladding layer 2 with a gap from the other side, the first upper cladding layer 61 is also disposed at the gap between the first electrode 4 and the other side of the lower cladding layer 2.
The second electrode 5 is arranged on the side of the first upper cladding layer 61 far away from the first electrode 4;
the second upper cladding layer 62 is disposed over the second electrode 5.
The lower cladding 2, the waveguide 3, the first upper cladding 61 and the second upper cladding 62 constitute an optical waveguide for guiding the transmission of the optical signal to be modulated.
On the basis of the above embodiments, the waveguide in this embodiment is made of an X-cut thin-film lithium niobate material, and the thickness of the waveguide is 300nm to 800nm.
In the case of the waveguide made of X-cut thin-film lithium niobate material, the waveguide is along the Y crystal direction.
On the basis of the above embodiments, the horizontal (Z direction) distance between the first electrode and the second electrode in this embodiment is 2.5um to 4um.
On the basis of the above embodiment, in this embodiment, the height difference between the first electrode and the waveguide is 0.5um to 2um, and the height difference between the second electrode and the waveguide is 0.5um to 2um.
As shown in fig. 3, in the longitudinal direction (X direction), the first electrode 4 is located below the waveguide 3, and the second electrode is located above the waveguide 3. The distance of the two electrodes in the longitudinal direction with respect to the center of the waveguide 3 is between 0.5nm and 2um.
On the basis of the above embodiments, in this embodiment, the first electrode is used for applying a voltage, and the second electrode is used for grounding;
or the first electrode is used for grounding, and the second electrode is used for applying voltage;
one electrode of the two electrodes is used for grounding, and the other electrode is used for applying voltage.
The thickness of the first electrode and the thickness of the second electrode are 0.6um to 1.5um.
In the arena of the above embodiments, in this embodiment, the lower cladding layer is a silicon oxide buried oxide layer, and the thickness of the silicon oxide buried oxide layer is 2um to 5um.
On the basis of the above embodiments, in this embodiment, the upper cladding layer is a silicon oxide layer, and the thickness of the silicon oxide layer is 800nm to 3um.
For example, the fixed lithium niobate waveguide has a total thickness of 600nm, an etching depth of 300nm, a ridge width at the upper part of the waveguide of 1000nm, and a remaining width at the side of slab to be etched of 1 μm. The thickness of the buried oxide layer is 4 μm. The substrate is silicon, the thickness is 500 μm, and the electrode thickness is 1.2 μm. The absolute values of the distances of the fixed electrodes which are deviated from the center of the waveguide in the longitudinal direction are the same, and are 1 μm. Fig. 5 shows the relationship between the lateral spacing of the electrodes and the absorption loss. As seen from the results, when the pitch gap is 3.2 μm, the absorption Loss is 0.1dB/cm, which is negligible.
For an electro-optical modulator with a push-pull structure, the modulation efficiency V pi · L can be calculated by the following formula:

The larger the value of the superposition integral of the electro-optical light and the optical field, the smaller the value of the modulation efficiency V pi · L, and the higher the modulation efficiency.
The calculated distance was 3.2 μm corresponding to V pi · L =1.15V · cm. In contrast, under the same waveguide structure, when the electrode spacing of the conventional symmetric electrode structure is equal to 5.2 μm (the corresponding absorption loss is also 0.01 dB/cm), the corresponding modulation efficiency V pi · L =2.4V · cm, and it is known that the new structure can effectively improve the modulation efficiency without significant absorption loss.
The modulation efficiency improvement brought about by the electro-optic modulator provided by the present embodiment benefits primarily from the LN-enhanced electric field. Comparing the electro-optic modulator provided by this embodiment and the prior art, when the absorption loss is 0.01dB, the electrostatic field distribution along the Z crystal direction inside the lithium niobate waveguide can be seen, and under the same absorption loss, the novel diagonal electro-optic modulator provided by this embodiment can bring the significant enhancement of the electrostatic field inside the LN waveguide.
