2 Hybrid photonic integrated circuit (PIC) Photonic integration is the key to reduce size, increase functionality and reduce cost of photonic devices Hybrid silicon integration combines: - Silicon and derived components to elaborate waveguides, filter or photodetector - III-V materials for light emitter Martijn J. R. Heck, SPIE Newsroom 2013 III-V Laser source III-V integrated by molecular wafer bonding DBR InP Gain region 1. Fiber coupling SOI wafer Si waveguide 2. Edge coupling 2
3 Plasma etching of III-V materials Process requirements: 1. High etch rates 2. Anisotropic sidewalls 3. Selectivity III-V vs SiN hard mask and SiO 2 box 4. Minimized surface and sidewalls roughness 5.

16 Conclusion Patterning of InP/InGaAs/InGaASP heterostructures can be achieved in Ar/Cl 2 /CH 4 plasma with assistance of temperature During InP etching, a deposit composed of InClx residues encapsulated in a SiOCCl matrix is formed on the reactor wall. HBr plasma can be used to remove Indium residues from the reactor wall but for a complete efficiency, reactor wall should be heated above 100 C A dual step plasma cleaning process is recommended to restore the reactor wall after InP etching : HBr plasma@140 C followed by SF 6 /O 2 plasma 16
