Abstract
Description
図1(a)、図1(b)は、本実施形態の概要を説明するための図である。図1(a)は従来の波長変換装置における高温動作時の反りを示す模式図、図1(b)は本実施形態の波長変換装置の反りを解消するための構造を示す模式図である。図1(a)、図1(b)のいずれにあっても、波長変換装置は、例えばペルチェ素子等の温度制御素子と波長変換素子200とを熱伝導のために設けられた上部部材100を介して接合している。図1(a)の従来の波長変換装置は、波長変換素子200と上部部材100とが導電性接着剤で接着されている。図1(b)の波長変換装置は、波長変換素子200と上部部材100とを導電性接着剤で接着することに代えて、シートあるいはフィルム状の樹脂層を含む接着シート300により接合している。接着シート300は、半田や銀ペーストと比較して弾性率が小さく、また、樹脂を材料とする導電性接着剤よりも平坦であって、かつ、上部部材100の変形を緩和することに充分な剛性を得る厚さを有している。なお、ここで、シートとフィルムとは、いずれも厚さが比較的薄く、かつ均一な部材を指し、その厚さや平坦性を規定するものではない。
(波長変換装置)
図2は、第1の実施形態の波長変換装置30を説明するための模式的な斜視図である。波長変換装置30は、金属筐体28と、金属筐体28の内部に設けられた波長変換素子33に入力される信号光1aと励起光(図中省略)とを合波する合波器14と、波長変換素子33により波長変換された変換出力信号光3cと励起光(図中省略)とを分波する分波器15と、を備えている。信号光1aは、波長1550nmの基本波であり、変換出力信号光3cは、基本波の第二高調波である波長775nmの信号光である。
次に、以上説明した波長変換装置の製造方法を説明する。図5を参照して説明する第1の実施形態の波長変換装置の製造方法は、アンダークラッド層となる基板32と、光導波路コア31となるコア基板311とを接合する工程と、コア基板311を薄膜化する工程と、コア基板311を加工して光導波路を形成する工程と、基板32及びコア基板311を分割して波長変換素子33をチップ化する工程と、波長変換素子33を上部部材27に接着シート35を挟んで取り付ける工程と、を含んでいる。以下、このような工程を順次説明する。
図5(a)、図5(b)及び図5(c)は、リッジ型の光導波路を有する波長変換素子33の製造方法を説明するための図である。第1の実施形態は、図5(a)に示すように、基板32と、コア層となる基板であるコア基板311と、を直接接合により接合する。コア基板311は、非線形光学材料の基板である。直接接合は、接着剤を用いない接合技術であり、高強度の光を入力した場合の光損失耐性を向上させることができる。接合工程において、基板32とコア基板311とに熱膨張係数が可能な限り近いものを選定することにより、後の熱処理プロセスにおいて基板32の割れを抑制することが可能になる。
基板32と貼り合わされたコア基板311は、図5(b)に示すように、薄膜化される。第1の実施形態の薄膜化工程は、薄膜化の手法に特に制限はなく、研削、研磨による薄膜化でもスマートカットによる薄膜化のいずれであってもよい。研削、研磨による薄膜化では、研削研磨用の定盤の平坦度が管理された装置を用いて、任意の深さに光導波路が存在するようになるまで研削研磨加工を施す。研削研磨工程終了後にポリッシング加工を行うことで、鏡面の研磨表面(光学端面)を得ることができる。最終的に基板の平行度(基板の最大高さと最小高さの差)を光学的な平行度測定器を用いて測定することで、基板全体としての平行度を得ることができる。
第1の実施形態は、次に、図5(c)に示すように、薄膜化されたコア基板311を加工して光導波路コア31を形成する。光導波路の形成は、形成方法に特に制限はなく、ドライエッチングプロセスやダイシングソーによる光導波路の切り出し等の公知の方法を用いてもよい。ドライエッチングによる光導波路コア31の形成は、ドライエッチング装置を用いてコア基板311の表面をエッチングすることにより行われる。この際、コア基板311の表面には公知のフォトリソグラフィのプロセスによって光導波路のレジストパターンが形成される。形成されたレジストパターンをマスクとし、ドライエッチングすることによって光導波路が形成される。
次に、第2の実施形態を説明する。第2の実施形態の波長変換装置の斜視図は、第1の実施形態で説明した図2に示す構成と同様であるため、図示及び説明を省く。図6(a)は、図2に示す第2の実施形態の波長変換素子33、接着シート35、上部部材27及び温度制御素子26を図中のy-z平面で切断した模式的な断面図である。図6(b)は、図2に示す波長変換素子33、接着シート35、上部部材27及び温度制御素子26をx-z平面で切断した模式的な断面図である。第2の実施形態は、第1の実施形態の接着シート35に代えて、基板32と上部部材27との間において、接着シートが形成されない、非形成領域350が形成される点で第1の実施形態と相違する。非形成領域は、第2の実施形態の樹脂層非形成領域に相当する。
