Abstract

The invention discloses a method of manufacturing a directional coupler of a photonic crystal. The directional coupler of the photonic crystal comprises a substrate and a plurality of dielectric cylinders arranged on the substrate. A dominant transmission line defect and a coupling transmission line defect which are mutual independent are formed among the plurality of dielectric cylinders, at least one row of dielectric cylinders are arranged between the dominant transmission line defect and the coupling transmission line defect, the row of dielectric cylinders between the dominant transmission line defect and the coupling transmission line defect is in track type, and the rest dielectric cylinders are cylindrical. The manufacturing method includes steps of preparing scribing slot needed in scribing, preparing photoresist mask needed in inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etching on the scribing slot and obtaining a silicon cylinder array structure, ICP etching with the photoresist mask structure prepared in step two and preparing the main structure of the directional coupler of the photonic crystal, finishing the track-type media cylinders in the main structure, and removing marginal area of the main structure and forming the directional coupler of the photonic crystal. The method of manufacturing the directional coupler of the photonic crystal has the advantages of small size, compact structure, high efficiency and high integration level.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a manufacturing method of a coupler, in particular to a manufacturing method of a photonic crystal directional coupler. Background technique [0002] Photonic crystals, also known as optical semiconductors, are artificial microstructures formed by substances with different dielectric constants arranged periodically in space. Photonic crystals have a photonic band gap and have the characteristics of controlling the propagation of light in them. They are potential application materials for realizing large-scale optoelectronic integration and all-optical networks in the future. When defects are introduced in intact photonic crystal materials, defect states are introduced in the photonic forbidden band. For example, the introduction of point defects can localize the light in the defects to form a photonic crystal resonator; and if the introduction of line defects, the light can be confined to propagate in the line defects to form ...
