Wherein, step S3 includes:
s31, introducing an HF etching protective layer 004 and a top layer 003 by using a dry etching process;
the dry etching refers to a technique of performing thin film etching using plasma.
S32, dry etching process is adopted, and HF: HNO with concentration ratio of 1:2.5:10 is adopted3:CH3And etching the buried layer 002 to the substrate 001 by COOH to form a light-emitting device region, a waveguide region and a detector region which are sequentially isolated.

Wherein the etched region includes the buried waveguide layer 0022.
S33, depositing SiO in the isolation trench2An isolation layer 005 having a thickness of 20nm to 50nm, preferably 20 nm;

Wherein, SiO2The isolation layer 005 isolates the light-emitting device region from the etching region and isolates the etching region from the detector region, so that the electrical isolation effect is achieved, and the photoelectric devices at two ends are prevented from generating parasitic effect.

The above conclusion is due to the fact that SiO increases with thickness2The greater scattering loss and reflection of the spacer layer 005 results in an increase in coupling loss. The wavelength is at 1.About 75 μm, no SiO2Barrier layer 005 and has SiO2005 and SiO spacer layer2The coupling efficiency between the device with the isolating layer 005 having the thickness of 20nm and the waveguide is 84% -85% basically, and the coupling efficiency between the SiO layer and the waveguide is 84% -85%2The coupling efficiency of the spacer layer 005 having a thickness of 50nm is substantially 81-82%. This indicates that SiO2The effect of the spacer layer 005 on the loss between the device and the waveguide is not negligible.

The longer the length of the tapered transition waveguide, the smaller the change size in the propagation direction, but the nonlinear increase, and the loss decreases less and less with the increase of the length, so the transmission loss of light is less affected.
Fig. 6-1 is a schematic diagram illustrating simulation of influence of different shapes of tapered transition waveguide regions on the projection degree under different wavelength conditions according to an embodiment of the present invention, where as shown in fig. 6-1, a concave transition waveguide increases transmission loss, and a convex transition waveguide is advantageous in fixed transition length transmission, and a longer transition wavelength is selected as much as possible under the permission of practical application.
Fig. 6-2 is a schematic diagram illustrating simulation of influence of different tapered transition waveguide lengths on transmittance under different wavelength conditions according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 6-2, a tapered transition waveguide length L ranges from 5 μm to 15 μm, and transmittance is the best when the tapered transition waveguide length L is 15 μm, but in a device design process, the tapered transition waveguide length L is not too long, and therefore the tapered transition waveguide length L is preferably 10 μm.

Fig. 2m is a schematic diagram of a right-view structure of a waveguide SiN film wrapping a waveguide region according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 2n and 2o are a schematic diagram of a right-view principle and a schematic diagram of a top-view principle of the waveguide SiN film according to an embodiment of the present invention, respectively, as shown in fig. 2n and 2o, a low-frequency power source is used to introduce high-energy particle bombardment to cause atoms or ions of the waveguide SiN film 007 to be bonded or redistributed, that is, the waveguide SiN film 007 becomes compressive and stretches or expands to generate intrinsic compressive stress on the waveguide.
The intrinsic stress is also called internal stress, and is generated in the film deposition growth environment (such as temperature, pressure, gas flow rate, etc.). If the film has a tendency to shrink along the film surface, the matrix generates tensile stress on the film, and conversely, the expansion tendency of the film along the film surface causes compressive stress. The intrinsic stress is closely related to the preparation method and the process of the thin film, and is different with the difference of the thin film and the base material.
Under the condition that other process conditions are not changed, the higher the reaction temperature is, the larger the generated waveguide compressive stress is; under the condition that other process conditions are not changed, the higher the reaction pressure is, the smaller the generated waveguide pressure stress is; under the condition that other process conditions are not changed, the higher the low-frequency power is, the higher the generated waveguide compressive stress is. And the magnitude of the pressure stress has a certain linear relation with the reaction temperature, the reaction pressure, the low-frequency power and the gas flow ratio. The relationship between the compressive stress and each parameter is shown in the following formula:
the relation between the reaction temperature and the compressive stress is that Tc is-1.0 × T-463.6;
the relation between the reaction pressure and the pressure stress is that Tc is 1.03 × P-1363.5;
tc is-0.7 × R-813.4;
the relationship between the gas flow rate and the pressure stress is that Tc is 24 × X2-167×X-560。
Wherein Tc is compressive stress in Pa; t is the reaction temperature and the unit is; p is the reaction pressure in mTorr; r is low-frequency power and has the unit of W; and X is the gas flow ratio.

Under the condition that other process conditions are not changed, the higher the reaction temperature is, the larger the tensile stress of the produced detector is; under the condition that other process conditions are not changed, the higher the reaction pressure is, the smaller the tensile stress of the produced detector is; under the condition that other process conditions are unchanged, the larger the radio frequency power is, the larger the tensile stress of the detector is generated. And the tensile stress is in a certain linear relation with the reaction temperature, the reaction pressure, the radio frequency power and the gas flow ratio. The relationship between the tensile stress and each parameter is shown in the following formula:
the relation between the reaction temperature and the tensile stress Ts is 1.2 × T-34.1;
the relation between the reaction pressure and the tensile stress Ts is 0.3 × P-28.5;
radio frequency power and tensile stress Ts relation, Ts (-2.48 × 10)-6)×R2+0.26×R+134.1;
Flow of gasRatio and tensile stress Ts relation, Ts ═ 265.4 × X2+574.6×X+140.3。
Wherein Ts is tensile stress with the unit of Pa; t is the reaction temperature and the unit is; p is the reaction pressure in mTorr; r is radio frequency power and has the unit of W; and X is the gas flow ratio.
Because the waveguide SiN film 007 wraps the waveguide region, stress directly acts on the waveguide, so that the waveguide is subjected to compressive stress, and the forbidden bandwidth of the waveguide is increased; because the detector SiN film 008 wraps the detector region and the substrate, the stress directly acts on the detector, so that the detector generates tensile stress along the direction perpendicular to the light transmission direction, and the forbidden bandwidth of the detector is reduced. Thereby satisfying the forbidden band relation: eg waveguide > Eg light emitting device > Eg detector, where Eg represents the forbidden band width. The integration of the light-emitting device, the waveguide and the detecting device is realized on the same layer by modulating the forbidden band relation of the light-emitting device, the waveguide and the detector, and the device has the advantages of novel structure, high integration level and low process cost.
