摘要: 以一种特定成分的有机硅为原料,采用溶胶-凝胶法,在硅基片上制备出用于光波导器件的薄膜.通过折射率和厚度测试及XPS成分测试验证了此薄膜具有较好的均匀性、厚度和光学特性,满足光波导器件的要求.分析了溶胶-凝胶法中常见的龟裂现象的原因以及采预防方法.利用这种薄膜结合微电子加工工艺制备出光波导器件阵列波导光栅.Abstract: Waveguide membrane on Si basement was fabricated by So-Gel method with a special kind of organic Si as raw material. After a serial of tests including thickness test, optical test and XPS test, it was concluded that this membrane was thick enough and has good quality. Since Sol-Gel method always causes chap and split, a method how to deal with it was discussed. Finally, how to fabricate an arrayed waveguide grating with the membrane was also introduced.
