摘要
本文采用等离子体色散效应和大注入效应,通过EPW各向异性腐蚀的方法,在外延硅芯片上刻蚀出脊形单波导,并采用纵向P+n结结构,对硅1.3~1.6μm电光强度调制器进行了初步研究,在注入电流密度为1.7×104A/cm村时,调制深度为90%.最后通过有限元法对横向p+n结大注入进行分析,提出了提高空穴时间利用率的措施.
Abstract By using the plasma dispersion effect and pn junction large injection effect, an all silicon electro-optical waveguide intensity modulator at 1. 3 ̄1. 6μm is investigated. A rib waveguide is formed in eptaxial silicon wafer by using anistropic etching with EPW( Ethylenediamine-Pyrocatechol-W solution, and the Si vertically injecting electro-optical modulator is fabricated by doping boron on the rib waveguide. its modulating depth is 90% at 17kA/cm2 injecting current. And finally, the silicon transversely injecting electrooptical waveguide modulator is analysed by using finite element method, and a measure for improvement of holes time utilization factor is put forward.
