摘要： An optical device comprises first, second and third elements fabricated on a common substrate. The first element comprises an active waveguide structure supporting a first optical mode, the second element, fabricated on a planarized top surface of the first element, comprises a passive waveguide structure supporting a second optical mode, and the third element, at least partly butt-coupled to the first element, comprises an intermediate waveguide structure, positioned such that a top surface of the intermediate structure underlies a bottom surface of the passive waveguide structure. If the first optical mode differs from the second optical mode by more than a predetermined amount, a tapered waveguide structure in at least one of the second and third elements facilitates efficient adiabatic transformation between the first optical mode and the second optical mode. Mutual alignments of the first, second and third elements are defined using lithographic alignment marks.

摘要： A device includes three elements fabricated on a common substrate. The first element includes an active waveguide structure having at least three sub-layers supporting a first optical mode. The second element has a passive waveguide structure supporting a second optical mode, and the third element, butt-coupled to the first element, has an intermediate waveguide structure supporting intermediate optical modes. One sub-layer in the active waveguide structure includes an n-contact layer, another sub-layer includes a p-contact layer, and a third sub-layer includes an active region. A tapered waveguide structure in at least one of the second and third elements facilitates efficient adiabatic transformation between the second optical mode and an intermediate optical mode. No adiabatic transformation occurs between that intermediate optical mode and the first optical mode. Mutual alignments of the three elements are defined using lithographic alignment marks that facilitate precise alignment between layers formed fabrication of the elements.

摘要： A device comprises first, second and third elements fabricated on a common substrate. The first element comprises an active waveguide structure comprising: one portion, of effective cross-sectional area A1, supporting a first optical mode; and a second portion, butt-coupled to the first portion, of effective cross-sectional area A2>A1. The second element comprises a passive waveguide structure supporting a second optical mode. The third element, at least partly butt-coupled to the second portion, comprises an intermediate waveguide structure supporting intermediate optical modes. If the first optical mode differs from the second optical mode by more than a predetermined amount, a tapered waveguide structure in at least one of the second and third elements facilitates efficient adiabatic transformation between the first optical mode and one intermediate optical mode. No adiabatic transformation occurs between any intermediate optical mode and the first optical mode. Mutual alignments of the elements are defined using lithographic marks.

摘要： A device providing efficient transformation between an initial optical mode and a second optical mode includes first, second and third elements fabricated on a common substrate. The first element includes first and second active sub-layers supporting initial and final optical modes with efficient mode transformation therebetween. The second element includes a passive waveguide structure supporting a second optical mode. The third element, at least partly butt-coupled to the first element, includes an intermediate waveguide structure supporting an intermediate optical mode. If the final optical mode differs from the second optical mode by more than a predetermined amount, a tapered waveguide structure in the second or third elements facilitates efficient transformation between the intermediate optical mode and the second optical mode. Precise alignment of sub-elements formed in one of the elements, relative to sub-elements formed in another one of the elements, is defined using lithographic alignment marks.

摘要： A device includes a first element having a passive waveguide structure supporting a first optical mode, a second element providing heat spreading functionality, a third element thermally coupled to the second element, having an active waveguide structure supporting a second optical mode, and a fourth element, at least partly butt-coupled to the third element, having an intermediate waveguide structure supporting intermediate optical modes. A tapered waveguide structure in either one of the first and fourth elements facilitates efficient adiabatic transformation between the first optical mode and one of the intermediate optical modes. No adiabatic transformation occurs between any of the intermediate optical modes and the second optical mode. Mutual alignments of the first, second, third and fourth elements are defined using lithographic alignment marks that facilitate precise alignment between layers formed during processing steps of fabricating the first, second, third and fourth elements.

摘要： A device is made up of an active structure attached to a substrate, the active structure having a facet through which light couples between the active structure and another structure attached to the substrate; and an active region comprising a quantum well region that includes a sub-region, adjacent the facet, configured to undergo QWI in response to heat. The active structure also contains a heating element, positioned close to the facet and operable such that heat generated by the heating element raises a temperature of the sub-region of the active region near the facet high enough to activate QWI in that sub-region, in turn causing a reduction in optical absorption, without raising temperatures in any other portion of the active region enough to cause significant thermal stress at any interface between the substrate and the active structure.
