Abstract

The invention discloses a temperature-drift-free on-chip integrated laser and a preparation method thereof and relates to the technical field of electronic devices. The temperature-drift-free on-chipintegrated laser comprises a gain medium, a spot-size converter, an alignment mark, a temperature-drift-free hybrid integrated optical waveguide and a temperature-drift-free optical resonator, whereinthe gain medium is connected with the temperature-drift-free hybrid integrated optical waveguide through the spot-size converter; the temperature-drift-free hybrid integrated optical waveguide comprises high-refractive-index material layer formed on a low-refractive-index substrate and a negative-thermo-optical-coeffecient material layer which can compensate for a positive thermo-optical coefficient of the high-refractive-index material layer; and the temperature-drift-free optical resonator is of a resonator structure formed based on the temperature-drift-free hybrid integrated optical waveguide, and is used for stabilizing output wavelengths of the laser at different temperatures. The problem that an output wavelength of a silicon-based on-chip integrated laser changes with the temperature is solved. An additional regulation and control device does not need to be added, so that the temperature-drift-free on-chip integrated laser is low in power consumption, high in integration degree and low in preparation cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optoelectronic devices, in particular to an on-chip integrated laser without temperature drift and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The rapid development of information technology has put forward higher and higher requirements for the transmission rate and integration of communication systems. Based on the characteristics of low loss, high refractive index difference and small structure size of silicon-based devices, integration on silicon substrates has become the main Direction of development. However, since silicon is an indirect bandgap material, it is difficult to achieve laser emission, so it is necessary to mix and integrate silicon with active materials such as III-V groups to realize on-chip integrated lasers. [0003] For silicon-based materials, including silicon, silicon nitride and other positive thermo-optic coefficient materials, the refractive index coefficient ...
