论文摘要
我们开发一个单层波导表面光栅结构,以垂直夫妇在红外(NIR)光线(NIR)光线附近,距离大面积(〜100 um长度尺度)在硅启动器(SOI)基板上,从大面积(〜100 um长度尺度)si波导,用于自由空间,以适用于高功率激光应用的自由空间。我们的设计方法基于局部发射角度和外耦合强度的优化。仿真结果表明,在所需的焦点位置可以实现1/E2宽度为3.82 UM的焦点,其中33%(-4.81 dB)模拟的源以自由空间聚焦效率,而初始测量结果显示效率为22%(-6.58 dB)。
We develop a single-layer waveguide surface grating structure to vertically couple near infrared (NIR) light at ~1.55 um wavelength from a large area (~100 um length scale) Si waveguide on a Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) substrates to free-space for high-power laser applications. Our design approach is based on the optimization of local emission angles and the out-coupling intensities. Simulation results show that a focal spot with a 1/e2 width of 3.82 um can be achieved at the desired focal position, with 33% (-4.81 dB) simulated source to free-space focusing efficiency, while initial measurements show an efficiency of 22% (-6.58 dB).
