Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of fabricating mirrors in polymer waveguides. 5 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION AND STATE OF THE ART
- Mirrors 20 generally make a abrupt change of the direction of light propagated in the optical waveguides such as to deflect the light out of a waveguide to some receiver.
- Mirrors which can generally be formed by end surfaces of optical waveguides can be produced using different methods. Mirrors in the waveguide plane achieving a reflection at a surface to air has been disclosed by Honeywell, for example for creating sharp 90° bends
- the position of an oblique mirror structure inside a polymer waveguide is accurately defined by using an integrated mask of metal, which is defined using photolithography, on top of the waveguide structure.
- the metal mask only lets the laser light through where material is to be removed, i.e. ablated, in order to manufacture one or several mirrors.
- the need for a high accuracy of the position in space of the laser radiation beam can be reduced since in the lithographic mask which defines the metal mask intended for producing the reflector also a pattern can be included defining the contact pads intended for flip-chip mounting of lasers and photodiodes.
- Self-aligning flip- chip mounting comprising soldering isles allows a very accurate positioning of the optocomponents which will then have a correct location in relation to the mirror obtained.
- the edge inside the integrated metal mask, which defines the position of the reflecting surface can be a straight line or be curved, for example having a parabolic profile, in order that more light which diverges from e.g. a laser diode will be collected in the waveguide structure or that light from the waveguide will be better focused on for example the input surface of a photodiode.
- Another metal layer can be applied directly under the undercladding or even at a suitable place under the waveguide core in order to use this for metallizing the mirror surface.
- the metallizing of the surfaces which will form the mirrors is made in the same process and directly after the cavity being made, when the radiation beam reaches this metal surface.
- the laser beam will then also affect this inner metal layer but will at a substantially lower velocity than the polymer material.
- Metal will then be removed in a very finely divided form having a high velocity of the particles therein. They will then deposit on available surfaces, and thus on the mirror surface owing to that it is located very close to the surface of the inner metal region.
- the surface of the inner metallization should advantageously be diffusely reflecting in order to mi_r___mize ablation due to reflections of the laser beam.
- Fig. 1 is partial sectional view of an optical waveguide structure in which a reflector is formed
- Fig. 2 is partial sectional view of the optical waveguide structure of Fig. 1, on which a surface-emitting laser is mounted,
- Figs. 3 and 4 are top views of the multilayer structure forming the optical waveguide in two embodiments of a mirror-defining edge
- Fig. 5 is a partial sectional view similar to that of Fig. 1 of optical waveguide structures arranged on top of each other.
- Fig. 1 a fragmentary cross-sectional view of a waveguiding structure 1 applied on a surface of a substrate 3 is shown.
- the substrate 3 can be made of a suitable plastics material.
- the light waveguiding structure 1 comprises three layers, an undercladding 5, a waveguide core layer 7 and an overcladding 9. All the waveguiding layers are assumed to be made of suitable polymer materials.
- the polymer materials can be selected as suggested in M. Robertsson, A. Dabek, G. Gustafsson, O.-J. Hagel, M. Popall, "New Patternable Dielectric and Optical Materials for MCM-L/D- and o/e-MCM-packaging" , First IEEE Int. Symp. on Polymeric Electronics packaging, Oct.
- optical waveguide 10 can be formed as is disclosed in the simultaneously filed Swedish patent application "Optoelectric multichip module”.
- a metal layer 11 is applied which has been patterned to an accurately defined configuration, including soldering islands or pads 13 for connecting an optoelectric or electrooptic component, not shown, and electrical conductors, not shown, such as between the pads 13 and current supply or control circuits, not shown.
- the metal layer 11 includes a frame like structure 15 having an elongated opening defining the location, where a reflector of 45° is to be formed.
- the metal layer 11 and its different areas 13, 15 are also visible in the top view in Fig. 3.
- a powerful laser beam 17 from a laser 18 in the desired angle to the surface of the structure 1 to hit the frame 15 and in particular the opening therein, an oblique recess or trench 19 can be formed.
- the laser beam 17 is located in relation to the long inner edges 16, 16', see also Fig. 3, of the frame 17 so that it hits at least one of these edges along which it can move in order to form the recess 19.
- the laser 18 producing the beam 17 can e.g. be an UV-excimer laser.
- a metal layer may have been applied and patterned. Then a portion 21 can be left at the bottom of the recess 19 in order to stop the laser beam, so that it cannot penetrate into the substrate 3.
- a metal layer may have been applied and patterned. Then a portion 21 can be left at the bottom of the recess 19 in order to stop the laser beam, so that it cannot penetrate into the substrate 3.
- the upper one of the two parallel surfaces of the recess 19, which surfaces both have an angle of 45° in relation to the surface of the structure, hence also to the different layers and to the substrate surface light propagating in the waveguide structure 10 can be reflected at the boarder surface to air out of the waveguide 10 to hit for example a light detector, not shown.
- the same reflecting surface can be used for injecting light in the waveguide if for example a light generating unit such as a surface emitting laser 23 is placed topside down above the reflector recess 19, as is illustrated in Fig. 2.
- the component mounted on the surface such as the surface emitting laser 23 is preferably aligned to or positioned in an accurately defined position using surface-tension forces of solder in solder balls or dots 25 applied at accurately defined positions to the bottom side of the component. These balls or dots 25 are when melted and when the component is placed at an approximate position adhering to and wetting the soldering
- the surface of the cavity recess 19 o can be metallized.
- the cavity 19 can then be refilled by a suitable material, for example a polymer cured by means of light, the polymer having a normal refractive index.
- the metal can be evaporated when hit by the laser beam 17.
- the evaporated metal can then be deposited on adjacent surfaces, i.e. the surfaces inside the cavity 19 and also thus the surface which is to be 5 used as a mirror for the hght propagating in the waveguide structure.
- the surface of the metallization has advantageously a diffuse reflection of the light of the laser beam in order to miiiimize ablation due to the reflected beam.
- the frame-like structure 15 for defining the opening of the cavity 19 has in the simplest case two long parallel sides of metal material opaque to the o light of the strong laser beam 17. Also end portions to close the frame can be arranged at the ends of these long, defining side portions. Only the position of that side-edge 16, 16' of a long parallel side of the frame 15 is important where the reflecting surface is to be formed. Thus, in the general case only one strip of masking metal material is required for positioning the reflecting side of the reflective recess accurately, the strip corresponding 5 to a long side of the frame-like structure 15. The laser beam has then to be moved along the intended edge of the strip to hit the surface of the polymer structure at this edge, the laser staying at each position for a sufficiently long period until polymer material down to the substrate 3 has been ablated.
- the inner edge of a long side of the frame-structure 15 can also be curved, as is 0 visible at 16" in Fig. 3 in order to form a reflecting surface for example of a paraboloidic shape. Hence a focusing of the hght propagating in the waveguide 10 which is to hit a photodetector element, not shown, can for example be obtained.
- optical waveguide structures formed by e.g. a polymer structure 1' of the kind illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2 located on top of an already formed bottom polymer 5 structure 1 can also be obtained, as is illustrated in Fig. 5.
- contact pads 13 are only arranged in the top-most polymer structure 1'. Reflecting surfaces for light waves propagating in the waveguides of each individual structure are produced as above.
- the under-most polymer structure including suitably arranged optical waveguides is produced, then mirrors in this structure and thereupon a new polymer structure on top of the already formed structure.
- the recesses 19 for the mirrors can be filled with the polymer material. Thereupon the reflecting recesses for the waveguides of the new structure are produced, etc.
