Abstract
Gallium Nitride (GaN) free-standing planar photonic device at telecommunication wavelength based on GaN-on-silicon platform was presented. The free-standing structure was realized by particular double-side fabrication process, which combining GaN front patterning, Si substrate back releasing and GaN slab etching. The actual device parameters were identified via the physical characterizations employing scanning electron microscope (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM) and reflectance spectra testing. High coupling efficiency and good light confinement properties of the gratings and rib waveguide at telecommunication wavelength range were verified by finite element method (FEM) simulation. This work illustrates the potential of new GaN photonic structure which will enable new functions for planar photonics in communication and sensing applications, and is favorable for the realization of integrated optical circuit.
