英文摘要 | A method of fabricating an optical fiber alignment structure for an optical device fabricated on the surface of a substrate, the integrated optical device being adapted to be optically coupled to an end of an optical fiber. The method comprises the steps of: (a) forming a sacrificial structure of a predetermined shape on a surface of a planar substrate, wherein the predetermined shape is chosen to be an inversion of a desired shape of the alignment structure to be fabricated; (b) fabricating the optical device on the substrate such that the sacrificial structure faces a waveguide portion of the optical device; (c) etching an optical fiber insertion aperture into said substrate, such that the optical fiber insertion aperture is aligned substantially underneath the sacrificial structure; and (d) selectively etching said sacrificial structure so as to form a region shaped to receive and align an end of an optical fiber, whereby the alignment structure of the desired shape is fabricated. The method can be used to align an optical fiber to a planar waveguide. |
