【摘要】：晶體管特征尺寸的進一步減小,使大規(guī)模集成電路的制造受到了量子隧穿效應等基本物理原理的限制。僅僅依靠減小晶體管尺寸、提高工作頻率的電學手段提高信息處理能力的發(fā)展遇到了瓶頸。與此同時,隨著以物聯(lián)網為代表的人類社會進程的快速發(fā)展,對網絡、視頻和大數(shù)據(jù)等信息應用的處理速度和容量都提出了更高的要求�？梢哉f,電子信息處理性能提高的瓶頸和人們對信息處理能力的更高要求的矛盾是目前科研人員亟待解決的重要課題。絕緣襯底上硅材料(SOI,Silicon on Insulator)因具有較高折射率差,對C波段的電磁波具有較強的限制能力,成為制造光電子器件的理想材料。近年來快速發(fā)展起來的基于SOI材料的集成光學,繼承了數(shù)十年來集成電路發(fā)展的成果和思路,采用與CMOS(Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor)相兼容的工藝條件實現(xiàn)結構緊湊的光學器件。同時,由于硅材料具有良好的等離子色散效應和熱光效應,可方便用于SOI材料的光學器件的調諧控制,極大豐富光電子器件功能和適用范圍。在眾多基于SOI材料光學器件中,微環(huán)諧振器(MRR,Microring Resonators)由一個閉合的環(huán)形波導和直波導耦合構成,因具有工藝成熟、集成度高及可實現(xiàn)光電混合集成的優(yōu)點,常用來構建不同用途的光學器件,是硅基集成光子器件的重要構成單元。本文就是圍繞基于硅基MRR傳輸特性及應用展開研究。從基礎理論入手,對SOI材料的體系特性和典型的微納光波導結構、硅基微納波導的基本理論(電磁場理論、頻域耦合模理論和時域耦合模理論),特別是硅基微納光波導的彎曲耦合進行了梳理和探討。利用散射矩陣模型對Add-Drop型MRR的濾波、開關和時間特性進行了分析。主要工作包括以下幾點:1、闡述了硅基微納光子器件的制備工藝、測試平臺和測試方法和步驟。分析了硅基微納波導的單模工作條件、輻射損耗與彎曲半徑的關系,及耦合系數(shù)和耦合端面的設計對器件輸出性能的影響。最后,設計、制備和測試了一組不同耦合間距值,波導寬度W(28)400 nm,高度H(28)220 nm,平板厚度h(28)90 nm的Add-Drop型MRR。得出耦合間距與自由光譜區(qū)、光學帶寬、品質因子的關系。為后續(xù)章節(jié)可調諧Fano諧振器、光學半加器和一位光學數(shù)字比較器的設計提供參考依據(jù)。2、闡述了Fano譜形產生的機理,并基于MRR提出了結構簡單的可調諧Fano器件。該Fano諧振系統(tǒng)所產生的諧振譜形從根本上說是由具有一定相位差的連續(xù)態(tài)和離散態(tài)的相干光干涉形成的。采用傳輸矩陣模型分析了該Fano器件的工作原理及結構參數(shù)對輸出譜形的影響。還對硅基光子器件的調諧原理和調諧方案進行比較和確定,最后在SOI材料上設計、制作一個包含微型熱極調諧結構的Fano諧振器。實驗結果表明:通過控制微型熱極的驅動電壓,Fano諧振器輸出譜形可以被精確調節(jié)。譜形的消光比達到10.02 dB,帶邊降落比達到101.3dB/nm。3、研究一種被稱為“導向邏輯”的光信息處理方案,并以MRR為開關構建出了半加器和一位光學數(shù)字比較器。相對于以往提出的結構,不包括任何交叉波導結構且避免單環(huán)出現(xiàn)三個耦合區(qū),從而降低器件的傳輸損耗及交叉串擾,能提高輸出信號的質量。并采用輸矩陣模型法討論了一位光學數(shù)字比較器的結構參數(shù)對器件輸出性能的影響。作為原理性驗證,利用硅的熱光效應實現(xiàn)了光開關的調諧控制,并分析了其對應靜態(tài)光譜特性,還成功獲得了相應的動態(tài)結果。最后,根據(jù)MRR開關的時間特性,還對半加器和比較器的極限工作速度進行了評估:若MRR的Q值為410,器件的極限工作頻率約為6.7 GHz;若MRR的Q值為310,則器件的極限工作頻率可達67 GHz。
