1 March 2006Heterogenous integration of InP/InGaAsP photodetectors onto ultracompact silicon-on-insulator waveguide circuits
We present the heterogeneous integration of InP/InGaAsP photodetectors onto ultracompact Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) waveguide circuits using benzocyclobutene (BCB) die to wafer bonding. This technology development enables the integration of a photonic interconnection layer on top of CMOS. Fabrication processes were optimized and the transfer of a passive Silicon-on-Insulator waveguide layer using BCB was assessed.
