However, these exemplary embodiments may be implemented in many different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments set forth herein. It should be understood that these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure of the invention is thorough and complete, and that the concept of these exemplary embodiments is fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, a method for determining the first-layer coating conditions of a laser end face is proposed according to a first aspect of the embodiments of this application, comprising:

[0054] Step 101: At a preset coating temperature, perform the first layer coating on the laser end face under different ion source conditions, and construct the first relationship model between the ion source conditions and the refractive index of the film layer.

[0055] Step 102: In the first relational model, select ion source conditions that meet the refractive index requirements of the coating layer, perform coatings of different thicknesses, and construct a second relational model that corresponds to the coating thickness and the film stress.

[0056] Step 103: Determine the first layer coating conditions on the laser end face based on the second relational model.

[0057] The method for determining the first-layer coating conditions of a laser end face provided in this application firstly performs the first-layer coating of the laser end face under a preset coating temperature and different ion source conditions, constructing a first relationship model between the ion source conditions and the refractive index of the film layer; then, based on the first relationship model, ion source conditions that meet the refractive index requirements of the coating layer are selected, and coatings of different thicknesses are performed, constructing a second relationship model between the coating thickness and the stress of the film layer; finally, based on the second relationship model, the first-layer coating conditions of the laser end face are determined. This method ensures that the obtained first-layer coating conditions of the laser end face include appropriate ion source conditions and film thickness, meets the requirements of the film layer for refractive index and stress, and can produce a variety of feasible technical solutions, providing a basis for determining the optimal conditions for the first-layer coating of the laser end face.

[0058] The laser fabricated under the optimal conditions for the first layer coating on the laser end face provided in this application can meet the laser's requirements for refractive index and film thickness. Ion source conditions (such as gas type, pressure, and power) affect the deposition rate and stoichiometry of the coating material, thereby changing the refractive index and extinction coefficient of the film. This ensures the laser's output power and beam quality. Controlling the film thickness ensures the consistency of laser operation. Maintaining the stress in the laser film can improve the laser's lifespan.

[0059] In one feasible implementation, the method for determining the first-layer coating conditions of the laser end face further includes: for the ion source coating equipment, performing the first-layer coating on the laser at different cavity heating temperatures; obtaining the correspondence between the refractive index of the first-layer coating and the cavity heating temperature, and determining the preset coating temperature based on the correspondence.

[0060] This technical solution further provides a method for determining the preset coating temperature. First, for the ion source coating equipment, the laser is coated with the first layer at different cavity heating temperatures. Then, the correspondence between the refractive index of the first layer coating and the cavity heating temperature is obtained. Based on the correspondence, the preset coating temperature is determined. This can eliminate cavity temperature interference and ensure the reliability of the preset coating temperature, thereby making the determination of the first relationship model and the second relationship model more reliable.

[0061] In one feasible implementation, the first relationship model between ion source conditions and film refractive index includes the following formula:

[0062]

[0063] Among them, E e E represents the relationship between the anode voltage and the kinetic energy of electrons in the ion source. e≈0.1V a V a I is the anode voltage. a n is the anode current. e This represents the electron flux density.

[0064] This technical solution further provides a first relational model, which can include the aforementioned formula. By determining this formula, the anode current in the ion source conditions can be calculated, allowing for the acquisition of multiple ion source conditions that meet the laser's requirements for film refractive index. This facilitates laser production and fabrication, and improves the reliability of laser operation. It is understood that the anode current is positively correlated with the electron flux density of the ion source; however, a high electron flux density can induce surface sputtering, increasing surface roughness and consequently reducing the material's refractive index. The aforementioned formula allows for the determination of the ion source's operating parameters, ensuring the required refractive index is met.

[0065] In one feasible implementation, the second relationship model between coating thickness and film stress includes the following formula:

[0066]

[0067] Among them, t f t represents the substrate thickness. s E represents the coating thickness. s Young's modulus based on v s R is the Poisson's ratio of the substrate, R is the radius of curvature of the substrate before deposition, R0 is the radius of curvature of the substrate after deposition, and σ is the base radius of curvature. f This refers to the stress in the membrane layer.

[0068] In this technical solution, a specific style of the second relational model is further provided. By determining the above formula, the coating thickness can be calculated. The second relational model is derived based on the first relational model. Based on this, the laser film prepared by the second relational model can take into account the requirements of refractive index and film stress, and can ensure the quality of the laser.

[0069] In one feasible implementation, the step of determining the first layer coating conditions of the laser end face based on the second relational model includes: selecting a proposed coating scheme that meets the film stress requirements in the second relational model; coating the laser bar based on the proposed coating scheme; performing performance testing on the coated laser bar; and taking the proposed coating scheme that meets the performance testing requirements as the qualified scheme for the first layer coating conditions of the laser end face.

[0070] In this technical solution, after defining the second relationship model, multiple proposed coating schemes that meet the film stress requirements can be obtained from the second relationship model. Then, based on the selected proposed coating schemes that meet the film stress requirements, actual processing can be carried out to coat the laser bar. Afterwards, the performance of the coated laser bar is tested, and the proposed coating scheme that meets the performance test requirements can be regarded as the qualified scheme for the first layer coating conditions of the laser end face. Among the multiple qualified schemes, the scheme that is easy to implement and has low cost is the optimal condition for the first layer coating of the laser end face, which facilitates the determination of the laser manufacturing process.

[0071] In one feasible implementation, the steps of performing performance tests on the coated laser bar and selecting the proposed coating scheme that meets the performance test requirements as the qualified scheme for the first layer coating condition of the laser end face include: using a bar bar testing machine to test the bar bar and then generating a photoelectric characteristic diagram; subjecting products whose threshold current change rate in the photoelectric characteristic diagram is less than or equal to a first threshold and whose slope effect change rate is less than or equal to the first threshold to aging tests, electron beam detection, and reliability qualification tests in sequence; and selecting the proposed coating scheme corresponding to the products that meet the aging test, electron beam detection, and reliability qualification test as the qualified scheme for the first layer coating condition of the laser end face.

[0072] This technical solution further provides specific steps for performance testing of the coated laser bar. A photoelectric characteristic map can be constructed using a bar bar tester. Based on this map, feasible solutions are then selected. Finally, aging tests, electron beam tests, and reliability assessment tests are conducted sequentially on the product to determine a qualified solution. Products prepared using this qualified solution can meet refractive index requirements, stress requirements, and the requirements of the bar bar tester, aging tests, electron beam tests, and reliability assessment tests, thereby further improving the quality of the laser.

[0073] Example

[0074] This application provides a method for determining the conditions of the first layer coating on the end face of a laser, including the following steps:

[0075] Step 1: Take several 2-inch Si wafers and conduct the first layer film experiment at a fixed coating temperature T. By adjusting the ion source anode current, anode voltage, process gas and gas flow rate, establish a model of the relationship between ion source conditions and film refractive index.

[0076] Among them, the relationship between the anode voltage and the kinetic energy of the ion source electrons is known to be E. e ≈0.1V a Approximately 10% of the anode voltage is converted into electron kinetic energy, thus a minimum anode voltage can be derived from practical experience. A model relating electron kinetic energy and anode current can then be established as follows: n_e is the electron flux density. With n_e constant, the qualification conditions of the ion source for the first layer membrane are calculated, and the first relational model is constructed.

[0077] Step 2: Take several 2-inch Si wafers and use Essential Macleod to design the initial film thickness. Deposit the film using the obtained initial ion source conditions, ensuring the test stress f ∈ [-150, -100]. Establish the formula for the relationship between film thickness and stress:

[0078]

[0079] Among them, t f t represents the substrate thickness. s E represents the coating thickness. s Young's modulus based on v s R is the Poisson's ratio of the substrate, R is the radius of curvature of the substrate before deposition, R0 is the radius of curvature of the substrate after deposition, and σ is the base radius of curvature. f The stress is the membrane layer stress. Based on the stress requirements, the required membrane thickness can be calculated, and a second relational model can be constructed.

[0080] Step 3: Take several laser bar strips, and perform coating using the calculated first-layer ion source conditions and film thickness. After coating, use a bar strip testing machine to test the bar strips and then generate relevant photoelectric characteristic diagrams. The Ith and SE values ​​after coating should be ±10%.

[0081] Step 4: Place the qualified chip in the aging chamber for a 24-hour burn-in test. After the qualified chip undergoes an EBI test for 48 hours, it undergoes an ALT test for 500 hours. If the test is successful, it represents the optimal conditions for the first layer of coating ion source on the laser end face.

[0082] The specific test parameters include: placing qualified chips in an aging chamber for burn-in testing at 100℃, 400mA, and 10 hours, with requirements of -15% ≤ ΔIth ≤ 6%, -10% ≤ ΔSE ≤ 10%, and -5% ≤ ΔVf ≤ 5%. Qualified chips then undergo ALT testing at 100℃, 400mA, and 168 hours, with a requirement of ΔIth ≤ 10%. These conditions represent the optimal conditions for the first layer of ion source coating on the laser's end face. Here, ΔIth is the rate of change of current, ΔSE is the rate of change of slope efficiency, and ΔVf is the rate of change of operating voltage.

[0083] like Figure 2As shown, according to a second aspect of the embodiments of this application, a system for the first-layer coating conditions of a laser end face is proposed, comprising: a first construction unit 201, which is used to perform the first-layer coating of the laser end face under different ion source conditions at a preset coating temperature, and construct a first relationship model of the correspondence between ion source conditions and film refractive index; a second construction unit 202, which is used to select ion source conditions that meet the refractive index requirements of the first layer coating under the first relationship model, and perform coating of different thicknesses, and construct a second relationship model of the correspondence between coating thickness and film stress; and a determination unit 203, which is used to determine the first-layer coating conditions of the laser end face based on the second relationship model.

[0084] The system for determining the first-layer coating conditions of a laser end face provided in this application includes a first construction unit 201, a second construction unit 202, and a determination unit 203. Based on this, the first construction unit 201 firstly performs first-layer coating of the laser end face under a preset coating temperature and different ion source conditions, constructing a first relationship model between the ion source conditions and the film refractive index. Then, the second construction unit 202 selects ion source conditions that meet the refractive index requirements of the first coating layer from the first relationship model, performing coatings of different thicknesses, constructing a second relationship model between the coating thickness and the film stress. Finally, the determination unit 203 determines the first-layer coating conditions of the laser end face based on the second relationship model. This ensures that the obtained first-layer coating conditions of the laser end face include appropriate ion source conditions and film thickness, meeting the film's requirements for refractive index and stress, and producing multiple feasible technical solutions, providing a basis for determining the optimal conditions for the first-layer coating of the laser end face.

[0085] In one feasible implementation, the first relationship model between ion source conditions and film refractive index includes the following formula:

[0086]

[0087] Among them, E e E represents the relationship between the anode voltage and the kinetic energy of electrons in the ion source. e ≈0.1V a V a I is the anode voltage. a n is the anode current. e This represents the electron flux density.

[0088] In this technical solution, a first relational model is further provided. The first relational model may include the above formula. By determining the above formula, the anode current in the ion source conditions can be calculated, and multiple ion source conditions that can meet the laser's requirements for the film refractive index can be obtained. This facilitates the production, processing and fabrication of the laser and can improve the reliability of the laser's operation.

[0089] In one feasible implementation, the second relationship model between coating thickness and film stress includes the following formula:

[0090]

[0091] Among them, t f t represents the substrate thickness. s E represents the coating thickness. s Young's modulus based on v s R is the Poisson's ratio of the substrate, R is the radius of curvature of the substrate before deposition, R0 is the radius of curvature of the substrate after deposition, and σ is the base radius of curvature. f This refers to the stress in the membrane layer.

[0092] In this technical solution, a specific style of the second relational model is further provided. By determining the above formula, the coating thickness can be calculated. The second relational model is derived based on the first relational model. Based on this, the laser film prepared by the second relational model can take into account the requirements of refractive index and film stress, and can ensure the quality of the laser.

[0093] In one feasible implementation, the step of determining the first layer coating conditions of the laser end face based on the second relational model includes: selecting a proposed coating scheme that meets the film stress requirements in the second relational model; coating the laser bar based on the proposed coating scheme; performing performance testing on the coated laser bar; and taking the proposed coating scheme that meets the performance testing requirements as the qualified scheme for the first layer coating conditions of the laser end face.

[0094] In one feasible implementation, the steps of performing performance tests on the coated laser bar and selecting the proposed coating scheme that meets the performance test requirements as the qualified scheme for the first layer coating condition of the laser end face include: using a bar bar testing machine to test the bar bar and then generating a photoelectric characteristic diagram; subjecting products whose threshold current change rate in the photoelectric characteristic diagram is less than or equal to a first threshold and whose slope effect change rate is less than or equal to the first threshold to aging tests, electron beam detection, and reliability qualification tests in sequence; and selecting the proposed coating scheme corresponding to the products that meet the aging test, electron beam detection, and reliability qualification test as the qualified scheme for the first layer coating condition of the laser end face.

[0095] This technical solution further provides specific steps for performance testing of the coated laser bar. A photoelectric characteristic map can be constructed using a bar bar tester. Based on this map, feasible solutions are then selected. Finally, aging tests, electron beam tests, and reliability assessment tests are conducted sequentially on the product to determine a qualified solution. Products prepared using this qualified solution can meet refractive index requirements, stress requirements, and the requirements of the bar bar tester, aging tests, electron beam tests, and reliability assessment tests, thereby further improving the quality of the laser.

[0096] In this technical solution, after defining the second relationship model, multiple proposed coating schemes that meet the film stress requirements can be obtained from the second relationship model. Then, based on the selected proposed coating schemes that meet the film stress requirements, actual processing can be carried out to coat the laser bar. Afterwards, the performance of the coated laser bar is tested, and the proposed coating scheme that meets the performance test requirements can be regarded as the qualified scheme for the first layer coating conditions of the laser end face. Among the multiple qualified schemes, the scheme that is easy to implement and has low cost is the optimal condition for the first layer coating of the laser end face, which facilitates the determination of the laser manufacturing process.

Therefore, the computer-readable storage medium 301 possesses all the beneficial effects of the method for determining the first layer coating conditions of the laser end face as described in the above technical solutions.

[0099] The computer-readable storage medium 301 provided in this application embodiment, when executing the computer program 302, firstly performs the first-layer coating of the laser end face under a preset coating temperature and different ion source conditions, constructing a first relationship model of the correspondence between ion source conditions and film refractive index; then, based on the first relationship model, selects ion source conditions that meet the refractive index requirements of the coating layer, performs coatings of different thicknesses, and constructs a second relationship model of the correspondence between coating thickness and film stress; finally, based on the second relationship model, determines the first-layer coating conditions of the laser end face.
