Abstract

We propose a hybrid photonic platform based on chalcogenide glass (GeSbSe) integrated with lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI), providing enhanced performance and compactness for integrated photonics. Key photonic components, including grating couplers (GCs), micro-ring resonators, multimode interference (MMI), and the Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI), are designed and fabricated on this platform. The micro-ring resonator achieves an intrinsic quality factor of 72,000 and a propagation loss of ∼3 dB/cm. The multimode interference couplers demonstrate minimal excess loss, while the MZI exhibits an extinction ratio exceeding 30 dB over a bandwidth of 50 nm. This hybrid platform, leveraging the unique optical properties of GeSbSe and LNOI, offers scalability and low-loss photonic integrated circuits, with promising applications in high-speed optical communications and signal processing.
