Accurate measurement of scattering and absorption loss in microphotonic devices.

چکیده
We present a simple measurement and analysis technique to determine the fraction of optical loss due to both radiation (scattering) and linear absorption in microphotonic components. The method is generally applicable to optical materials in which both nonlinear and linear absorption are present and requires only limited knowledge of absolute optical power levels, material parameters, and the structure geometry. The technique is applied to high-quality-factor (Q=1x10(6) to Q=5x10(6)) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) microdisk resonators. It is determined that linear absorption can account for more than half of the total optical loss in the high-Q regime of these devices.

Precision Fabrication Techniques for Microphotonic Devices
Microphotonic devices seek to miniaturize and integrate the components needed for optical networking. These devices have exacting fabrication tolerances for feature size, patternplacement, and surface roughness. Careful control of feature size is critical for resonant structures and phase-matching between coupled waveguides, while pattern-placement is essential for devices that rely on long-ran...
