Embodiment 1

[0039] The coupling distance is one of the important parameters affecting the coupling coefficient, and the modification of the coupling distance in the directional coupler can reset the coupling coefficient of the device. In the case of the same processing parameters, all basic properties such as the size and cross-sectional shape of the two coupling arms in the directional coupler are basically the same, and the coupling spacing of the device can be considered as the central axis spacing of the two waveguides. Therefore, the problem of resetting the coupling coefficients of a directional coupler can be considered as a problem of reconstructing the geometric center of the waveguide. Using the femtosecond laser secondary direct writing method, the second spliced ​​waveguide is directly written at the position where the central axis of the initial waveguide is very close, and the initial waveguide and the second spliced ​​waveguide will be fused into a new combined waveguide. S...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for resetting a coupling coefficient of a directional coupler by using femtosecond laser secondary direct writing and application, and belongs to the technical field of laser processing. The method comprises the following steps of cleaning a glass sample; building a laser processing light path and leveling a to-be-processed sample; and a femtosecond laser direct writing device is used. The method comprises the specific steps that firstly, an optical shutter is closed, and the glass sample is moved to an initial processing position; then a half-wave plate is rotated, and the laser power is adjusted; finally, software is operated to directly run a pre-written processing program, and secondary direct writing is respectively carried out in the processing areas of two waveguides in the coupling area, after processing is finished, polishing is carried out on the sample, and two new waveguides with the coupling distances different from those of the original waveguides are obtained; and the processing area is an area which is 0-3 microns away from the central axes of the original waveguides. According to the method, repair and redistribution of the initial split ratio of the directional coupler can be achieved, so that the problem of manufacturing errors in the process of preparing the directional coupler and an integrated chip by using femtosecond laser is solved.
