Definitions
- the present invention rexates to a modulator accor ⁇ ing to the preamble of Claim 1 and to an integrated circuit according to the preamble of Claim 9.
- Fibre-optic communications links are becoming more and more usual, because of their anility to permit information to be transmitter! at high spee ⁇ s over long distances.
- Semiconductor lasers are being used to an increasing extent as signal sources m such fibre-optic systems. There is desired a laser that has a narrow spectral line width and which will enable information to be transmitted at high speeds (bit rates) over long distances without the light pulses of the signal flowing together as a result of dispersion.
- the light pulses can be obtained oy ⁇ irect modulation of the laser drive current, n other words witr amplitude modulation.
- An undesired secondary effect of sucn amplitude modulation resides in unavoidable weak frequency modulation, m other words modulation of tne frequency of the light transmitted from the laser.
- Such a change in wavelengrn is called chirp.
- cf tne dispersion of the optical fibre the spectrally broadened light pulse will undergo pulse dispersion in the time domain as the pulse propagates along the fibre. This problem _s exacerbated at increased b t rates and with longer transmission distances.
- Chirp can be avoided cr at least reduced, by using external modulation.
- External modulation can be effected with a separate modulator component or with an integrated mooulator component .
- an electroabsorption modulator can be integrated on the same substrate as a laser.
- An electroabsorption modulator can utilise the Franz-Keldshe effect or the Stark effect, in other words an absorption edge of a semiconductor is displaced towards longer wavelengths when an electric field is applied to the semiconductor.
- the absorption edge is modulated and therewith also the amplitude of the transmitted light. It is therefore unnecessary to modulate the laser, wherewith chirp is reduced.
- the separate or integrated modulator will preferably be protected against reflections from the end surface of the modulator, particularly in the case of the integrated modulator. If light is reflected back into the laser from the output end of the modulator, the laser will swing in wavelength. It is of great importance to reduce reflections into the laser at high bit rates and/or m the case of long transmission paths. This has been achieved hitherto by treating the component surfaces with an ant reflection substance, for instance with a thin layer of SiOx whicn has a reflective capacity of less than 0.1%.
- the present invention addresses the aforesaid problem with the aid of a modulator according to Claim 1 and with the aid of an integrated circuit according to Claim 9.
- the ob ect of the present invention is to provide a modulator with which at least the aforesaid problems are reduced.
- One advantage afforded by the present invention is that the precision of the antireflection layer process need not be 100% in order to achieve a comparatively high performance.
- Another advantage afforded by the present invention is that its implementation does not require any additional process step.

- the refractive index of the active layer in the laser section, the insulation section and the modulator section are higher than the refractive index of the surrounding layers.
- the surrounding layers in the modulator, the insulation section and the laser section have a bandgap which is greater than the bandgap of the active layer so as to avoid absorption of the light signal in said layers.
- the aforedescribed integrated circuit can be manufactured by growing the lower cover layer 5, the active layer 6, the spacing layer 7 and the grating layer 8 on an InP substrate.
- the substrate is coated with an etching and re-growing mask comprised of SiNx for instance, and thereafter selectively etching the active layer 6, the spacing layer 7 and the grating layer 8 away from that surface or those surfaces that are not the laser section or shall belong to the laser section.

- HC1 hydrochloric acid based
- the electrode metallization and the electric contact layer are then removed from that apart of the ridge which lies within the insulation section.
- the upper cover layer 10 in the insulation section is implanted with hydrogen ions (H+) or with some other ion, to enhance the insulation between the electrodes 13, 15.
- the structure can be made planar, by depositing an insulating layer 19.
- the bonding metallization 14, 16 is then deposited.
- the modulator section 3 is curved or angled so that it will meet the end surface of the integrated circuit at an angle other than a right angle.
- This angle which is not a right angle, may be such as to cause the waveguide at said end surface to deviate from the crystal [011] direction by about 7° when the remaining non-curved or angled part of the waveguide is disposed parallel with said crystal direction. Angling of the waveguide in relation to the end surface of said circuit enables back-reflections into the modulator to be reduced to an acceptable level.

- the electrodes 13, 14 and 15, 16 are insulated electrically from one another by the insulation section 2.
- the upper cover layer 10 m the insulation section 2 provides adequate insulation between the electrodes by virtue of its resistance being increased with said ion implantation 18.
- a modulator can be driven at high signal frequencies, Gbit/s.
- band-bending occurs at the abrupt transition between p-InP and InGaAsP, such that holes are accumulated at said transition, such accumulation being referred to as hole pile up.
- This accumulation, or pile up is dependent on the magnitude of the reverse voltage that has been applied across the modulator. In modulation, these holes will form a charge density or volume that varies over a modulation cycle. This corresponds to a capacitive load that can impair or degrade the properties of the component at high signal frequencies.
- This abrupt transition between p-InP and InGaAsP can be smoothed out by providing between the active layer 12 and the upper cover layer 10 a layer of GalnAsP that has the intermediate bandgap wavelength of about 1.1 ⁇ m.
- the object of this layer is to increase the modulation bandwidth, by reducing hole pile up.
- the filling 19 makes the component planar and provides mechanical protection.
- the filling 19 also raises the metallization on the upper side 14 and 16 of the component, thereby reducing the capacitance in the modulator.
- One advantage in this respect is that it enables the modulator section 3 to be modulated at a high frequency.
- the -high frequency properties may also be improved by a lateral electrical limitation, wnich can be acnieved with insulation on both sides of the modulator ridge.
- the aforedescribed modulator is constructed in accordance with RWG (Ridge Waveguide Structure) .
- the present invention may, of course, also be applied with modulators and integrated circuits including a modulator and a laser constructed in accordance with BH (Buried Heterostructure) .
- BH Buried Heterostructure
- the laser 1 in the integrated circuit may be a semiconductor laser of the DFB type (Distributed Feed Back) or of the DBR type (Distributed Bragg Reflecting), for instance.
- the modulator 3 may be of an electroabsorption type or of the Mach-Zehnder type. Stark effect or Franz-Keldysh effect can be utilised when the modulator 3 is of the electronabsorption type.
- the polarity is such that the anode is connected to the upper cover layer 10 and the cathode to the lower cover layer 5.
