Description

On-chip waveguide loss measuring device
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a device for measuring waveguide loss on a silicon substrate.
Background
Along with the rapid development of communication technology, large-scale data exchange processing between chips, data centers and base stations is urgently needed, and high-speed, reliable, low-cost and low-power-consumption interconnection is urgently needed.
Silicon photonics, which is a new generation technology for optical device development and integration based on silicon and silicon-based substrate materials (e.g., SiGe/Si, SOI, etc.) using existing CMOS processes, combines the characteristics of ultra-large scale, ultra-high precision fabrication of integrated circuit technology with the advantages of photonics technology, ultra-high speed, ultra-low power consumption. Silicon photonics has urgent application requirements in the fields of optical communication and optical interconnection at the present stage, and is a potential technology for realizing on-chip optical interconnection and optical computers in the future.
Although the manufacturing process of the silicon optical chip is compatible with the CMOS process, the packaging and measuring cost of the silicon optical module is difficult to be effectively reduced, which also makes the cost advantage of the silicon optical chip not be fully demonstrated. The transmission loss of a silicon waveguide is one of the important characterizing parameters of a silicon photonics wafer. In the prior art, the waveguide loss is usually measured by a cut-back method.
