Abstract

See full text

A method of fabricating silicon waveguides with embedded active circuitry from silicon-on-insulator wafers utilizes photolithographic microfabrication techniques to define waveguide structures and embedded circuit recesses for receiving integrated circuitry. The method utilizes a double masking layer, one layer of which at least partially defines at least one waveguide and the other layer of which at least partially defines the at least one waveguide and at least one embedded circuit recess. The photolithographic microfabrication techniques are sufficiently precise for the required small structural features of high frequency waveguides and the double masking layer allows the method to be completed more efficiently. The basic fabrication method may be extended to provide batch arrays to mass produce silicon waveguide devices.
