Abstract

The invention discloses a grating coupler based on a lithium niobate film material and a manufacturing method thereof. The grating coupler comprises a grating coupler based on the lithium niobate thinfilm material comprising a lithium niobate photonic chip on an insulator and an optical fiber arranged on the lithium niobate photonic chip, and the lithium niobate photonic chip on the insulator sequentially comprises a convergent grating coupling mechanism, a silicon dioxide buried layer and a silicon substrate from top to bottom. The device is relatively high in coupling efficiency and relatively large in working wavelength bandwidth, facilitates large-scale integration and is used for performing performance test on devices on the lithium niobate photon integrated chip.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a technology in the field of passive photonic devices, in particular to a grating coupler based on a lithium niobate thin film material and used for vertically coupling an optical fiber directly to a chip and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] The existing grating couplers are mainly based on silicon-based materials. Silicon-based optoelectronics has been developed for a long time, and the technology is relatively mature, but limited by the material characteristics of silicon, silicon-based optoelectronics has certain limitations, and niobate Compared with silicon, lithium has many material advantages, such as high electro-optic coefficient, high nonlinear coefficient, wide transparent wavelength range, etc. [0003] In order to test the on-chip devices of lithium niobate-based photonic integrated chips, a key step is the input and output of optical signals. The characteristics and defects of the exi...
