Definitions
- the present invention relates to an optical waveguide element and an optical modulation device and optical transmission device using the same, and in particular to an optical waveguide element having a composite substrate that includes a thin plate on which an optical waveguide is formed and a holding substrate to which the thin plate is bonded via an intermediate layer.
- optical waveguide elements such as optical modulators are widely used, which form an optical waveguide on a substrate with electro-optical effects such as lithium niobate (LN) and have a modulation electrode that modulates the light waves propagating through the optical waveguide.
- LN lithium niobate
- driver-integrated modulators such as HB-CDM (High Bandwidth Coherent Driver Modulator)
- HB-CDM High Bandwidth Coherent Driver Modulator
- the optical waveguide element itself is also being made smaller, and thin plates on which rib-type optical waveguides with widths and heights of about 1 ⁇ m are being used.
- a holding substrate is used to hold the thin plate, and furthermore, a composite substrate with an intermediate layer is used to increase the adhesion between the thin plate and the holding substrate.
- functional layers such as electrodes are formed on the thin plate, it is cut from the wafer state into individual optical waveguide element chips.
- the thin plate is a substrate with electro-optical effects such as LN with a thickness of 1 ⁇ m or less
- the holding substrate is made of silicon (Si) or alpha quartz single crystal with a thickness of 0.2 to 1.0 mm to reinforce the mechanical strength.
- the intermediate layer is made of a material that can increase the bonding strength and is 10 ⁇ m or less; for example, a Si oxide film is preferably used to bond an LN thin plate to a Si substrate.
- a composite substrate of a thin plate 1, an intermediate layer 2, and a holding substrate 3 is cut using a blade C1.
- frictional heat generated during processing, wear and tear of the blade abrasive grains, and the effects of cutting fluid used to suppress these can cause the thin plate or intermediate layer to peel off, chipping, or chipping, which can then progress to cracks, as shown in Figure 1(b).
- Fig. 2 shows what is called the bevel cut or step cut method, in which two types of blades (C2, C3) are prepared for cutting.
- the first cut in a single cutting process as in Fig. 1, in Fig. 2 the first cut (see Fig. 2(a)) can be made shallower. Therefore, by using different cutting blades suited to each layer, peeling and cracks in the thin plate and intermediate layers can be suppressed.
- the time required for cutting increases, which is a problem.
- Patent Document 1 also proposes a method of making a groove 4 on the upper inner surface of the cut surface of the chip, as shown in Figure 3.
- the groove 4 acts as a breakwater, and when cut, as shown in Figure 3(b), it is possible to prevent peeling of the thin plate and intermediate layer and the progression of cracks into the substrate, but there is a problem in that the effective area of the chip is narrowed by the width of the groove 4.
- Patent Document 2 discloses that the upper part of the composite substrate is first removed by dry etching (see FIG. 4(a)) and wet etching (see FIG. 4(b)), and then the removed part is cut along with laser irradiation or a crystal cleavage plane (see FIG. 4(c)). With this cutting method, the processed surface is of higher quality than blade cutting, and the cutting width is narrower, ensuring a larger effective area within the chip. However, as shown in FIG. 4(b), peeling of the thin plate and intermediate layers and under- (over-) etching occur during wet etching.
- the problem that the present invention aims to solve is to provide an optical waveguide element that solves the problems described above, suppresses peeling and cracking of thin plates and intermediate layers in a composite substrate, suppresses increases in the time required for cutting, and makes it possible to ensure a large effective area within the chip. It is also to provide an optical modulation device and an optical transmission device that use this optical waveguide element.

- substrates with electro-optical effects such as LN, lithium tantalate, lead lanthanum zirconate titanate (PLZT), vapor-deposited films made from these materials, and even semiconductor materials and organic materials.
- PZT lead lanthanum zirconate titanate
- the optical waveguide As a method for forming the optical waveguide, it is possible to use a rib-type optical waveguide in which the part of the substrate corresponding to the optical waveguide is convex by etching the surface of the substrate other than the optical waveguide and forming grooves on both sides of the optical waveguide, and it is also possible to use a horizontal slot waveguide in which a slot waveguide structure is formed in the thickness direction by thinning the substrate, thereby reducing bending loss. It is also possible to form an optical waveguide by forming a high refractive index portion on the substrate surface using titanium (Ti) or the like by thermal diffusion or proton exchange. It is also possible to form a composite optical waveguide by diffusing a high refractive index material into a rib-type optical waveguide portion. In particular, when the optical waveguide element itself is made small or a folded optical waveguide is used, a convex waveguide with a width or height of about 1 ⁇ m that provides strong light confinement is used.
- the substrate on which the optical waveguide is formed is thinned by grinding and polishing to a thickness of 10 ⁇ m or less, more preferably 5 ⁇ m or less, and even more preferably less than 1 ⁇ m (the lower limit of the thickness is preferably 0.3 ⁇ m or more), or a thinned substrate is produced using the smart cut method (a method of thinning by ion implantation peeling).
- the height of the rib-type optical waveguide is preferably set to 1 ⁇ m or less. It is also possible to form a vapor-grown film on another substrate with a thickness of about the same as the above-mentioned substrate, and process the film into the shape of the above-mentioned optical waveguide.
- a substrate (thin plate, thin film) 1 on which an optical waveguide is formed is adhesively fixed to a holding substrate 3 via an intermediate layer 2.
- a substrate in which the thin plate 1, intermediate layer 2, and holding substrate 3 are integrated is called a "composite substrate.”
- the support substrate 3 may be made of Si having a thickness of 0.2 to 1.0 mm, a glass material with a low dielectric constant, alpha quartz single crystal, quartz, sapphire, or the like.
- the intermediate layer is made of a material having a lower refractive index than the thin plate 1.
- the intermediate layer is preferably thicker than the optical waveguide substrate, 10 ⁇ m or less.
- the optical waveguide element of the present invention is characterized in that a protective film PC is formed on the first side B1 including the thin plate 1, as shown in Figures 5 and 6.
- Figure 5 is a plan view of the optical waveguide element, and to make the drawing easier to see, the optical waveguide is not shown, but as shown in Figure 6, a rib-type optical waveguide 10 is disposed between the signal electrode ES and the ground electrodes (EG1, EG2).
- FIG. 6 is an example of a cross-sectional view taken along dashed line A-A' in FIG. 5, in which a protective film PC is disposed on the first side B1 including the thin plate 1 on which the optical waveguide 10 is formed.
- the thin plate 1 and intermediate layer 2 in the portion to be cut are removed in advance by dry etching, and a protective film PC having a thickness of 1 ⁇ m or more is formed to cover the removed side B1 and to avoid contact with the blade used during cutting.
- the lower end of the protective film PC can also be positioned midway through the intermediate layer 2 or inside the holding substrate 3.
- the material used for the protective film PC can be a material used only for the protective film, but since functional layers such as electrodes and spot size converters are formed on the thin plate 1, it is also possible to use a material used for these functional layers.
- a material used for these functional layers if it is an organic dielectric, a resist-like resin with a small Young's modulus and easy patterning is preferable, and materials such as polyamide-based resins, melamine-based resins, phenol-based resins, amino-based resins, and epoxy-based resins can be used.
- the protective film is formed before forming functional layers such as electrodes, it is possible to prevent over-etching of the intermediate layer that can occur in the subsequent wet etching process.
- a material that can withstand the chemicals used in wet etching such as tantalum, gold (Au), silver, aluminum, or Si, is selected.
- an adhesion layer BL can be formed on part of the interface between the protective film PC and these substrates. This adhesion layer can also be formed on the bottom surface of the step between the first side B1 and the second side B2 to further improve adhesion.
- the material used for the adhesion layer BL depends on the material used for the protective film PC, but for example, when Au is used for the protective film PC, Ti, niobium (Nb), nickel, chromium, etc. can be used for the adhesion layer. In particular, when Ti or Nb is used, not only does it improve adhesion to the protective film, but it also has excellent corrosion resistance to iodine, which is an etchant for Au.
- FIG. 7A and 7B are diagrams showing an example of cutting a chip using a protective film PC.
- the thin plate 1 and the intermediate layer 2 are removed by dry etching.
- a protective film PC is formed on the first side B1.
- FIG. 7(c) when cutting the holding substrate 3 with the blade C4, the position of the blade C4 is adjusted so as not to catch the protective film PC, and cutting is performed in one step, which can suppress peeling and cracking of the thin plate 1, the intermediate layer 2, and the functional layer (not shown) formed on the thin plate. It is also possible to shorten the processing time. As shown in FIG.
- cutting can be performed at a position close to the protective film PC, and damage to the inside of the composite substrate can be suppressed by the cutting, so that the effective area of the chip can be secured widely.
- cutting is performed with the blade C4, but a wider effective area can be secured by cutting using a laser.
- the protective film PC can be formed to cover from the first side B1 to a portion of the top surface of the thin plate 1. This makes it possible to widen the area that can be protected by the protective film PC, and also to increase the adhesion between the protective film PC and the thin plate 1, etc.
- the protective film PC can be formed over the entire first side B1 including the thin plate 1, but it is also possible to form the protective film PC continuously or discontinuously around the periphery of the chip. Forming it continuously enhances the protective effect.
- a protective layer does not need to be formed because the end face is polished after cutting.
- FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view showing an application example of FIG. 6, in which the protective film PC is formed integrally with the electrode (particularly the ground electrode EG1).
- the protective film can function as a ground electrode, ensuring a larger effective area within the chip.
- FIG. 9 shows the formation of a groove 4 on the surface of the composite substrate (thin plate 1) near the first side B1 on which the protective film PC is formed.
- This groove can suppress the progression of damage to the inside of the thin plate in the unlikely event that the thin plate 1 peels off. Furthermore, by positioning the protective film so that the protective film PC fits into the groove 4, the bonding strength of the protective film to the thin plate can be increased due to the anchor effect.
- the surface of the first side B1 on which the protective film PC is disposed is uneven.
- the first side B1 is inclined so that the surface faces upward.
- the adhesion layer BL can be laminated thicker in proportion to the inclination, and the adhesion layer BL can be reliably formed on the first side B1.
- the protective film PC can also be formed thick, improving the protective function of the thin plate and intermediate layer.
- a compact optical modulation device MD can be provided by housing the optical waveguide element (substrate 1) of the present invention in a housing CA made of metal or the like and connecting the outside of the housing to the optical waveguide element with an optical fiber F.
- a housing CA made of metal or the like
- reference numeral 5 denotes a reinforcing member superimposed on substrate 1 along the end face of substrate 1, and is used when directly joining an optical component such as an optical fiber to the end face of substrate 1.
- An electronic circuit that outputs a modulation signal S0 that causes the optical modulation device MD to perform a modulation operation can be connected to the optical modulation device MD to configure an optical transmission device OTA. Since the modulation signal S to be applied to the optical waveguide element needs to be amplified, a driver circuit DRV is used.
- the driver circuit DRV and the digital signal processor DSP can be placed outside the housing CA, but can also be placed inside the housing CA. In particular, by placing the driver circuit DRV inside the housing, the propagation loss of the modulation signal from the driver circuit can be further reduced and a wider bandwidth can be achieved.
- an optical waveguide element that suppresses peeling and cracking of thin plates and intermediate layers in a composite substrate, suppresses increases in the time required for cutting, and ensures a large effective area within the chip. It is also possible to provide an optical modulation device and an optical transmission device that use an optical waveguide element that has such excellent effects.
