A method for manufacturing a native emission matrix, comprising the following steps: a) providing a base structure comprising a substrate, a layer of GaN, a layer of doped In(x)GaN and an epitaxial regrowth layer of nid In(x)GaN, b) structuring first and second mesas in the base structure, the first mesa comprising a part of the layer of GaN, the layer of doped In(x)GaN and the epitaxial regrowth layer of not-intentionally doped In(x)GaN, the second mesa comprising a part of the layer of doped In(x)GaN and the epitaxial regrowth layer of not-intentionally doped In(x)GaN, c) electrochemically porosifying the second mesa, d) producing stacks on the mesas to form LED structures emitting at various wavelengths.

A ring resonator electro-optical device includes a first silicon nitride waveguide and a second annular silicon waveguide that comprises a first section running under a second section of the first waveguide. The second waveguide also includes an annular silicon strip having a cross-section increasing in the first section from a minimum cross-section located under the second section.

Electro-optical device with ring resonator

An optoelectronic chip includes optical inputs having different passbands, a photonic circuit to be tested, and an optical coupling device configured to couple said inputs to the photonic circuit to be tested.

Optoelectronic chip and method for testing photonic circuits of such chip

An optical testing circuit on a wafer includes an optical input configured to receive an optical test signal and photodetectors configured to generate corresponding electrical signals in response to optical processing of the optical test signal through the optical testing circuit. The electrical signals are simultaneously sensed by a probe circuit and then processed. In one process, test data from the electrical signals is simultaneously generated at each step of a sweep in wavelength of the optical test signal and output in response to a step change. In another process, the electrical signals are sequentially selected and the sweep in wavelength of the optical test signal is performed for each selected electrical signal to generate the test data.

Opto electrical test measurement system for integrated photonic devices and circuits

A device, includes: a ring waveguide; a diode comprising a junction extending at least partly in the ring waveguide; and a first circuit configured to supply a signal representative of a leakage current in the diode.

Integrated electro-optical device

An intermediate signal is separated into a first sub-signal and a second sub-signal according to a separation coefficient having a known real value. The first sub-signal is delivered to a first photonic circuit containing at least one photonic device to be characterized and a first photonic part. The second sub-signal is delivered to a second photonic circuit containing a second photonic part having a same transfer function as the first photonic part but lacking the at least one photonic device. Optical output signals from the first and second photonic circuits are converted into first and second electrical signals. Losses of the at least one photonic device are determined from processing the electrical signals and from the known real value of the separation coefficient.

Method for characterization of photonic devices, and associated device

In one embodiment, a waveguide includes an upstream portion, a downstream portion, and an intermediate portion between the upstream portion and the downstream portion. A first band is disposed on an insulating layer, the first band oriented along a first direction. A first lateral strip and a second lateral strip are disposed on either side of the first band, the first lateral strip and the second lateral strip being thinner or interrupted along the intermediate portion.

Wave guide

The invention concerns an optoelectronic chip including a pair of optical inputs having a same bandwidth, and each being adapted to a different polarization, at least one photonic circuit to be tested, and an optical coupling device configured to couple the two inputs to the circuit to be tested.

An elementary photonic interconnect switch is integrated into an optoelectronic chip and includes four simple photonic interconnect switches. Each simple photonic interconnect switch has two optical waveguides that cross and are linked by a ring resonator having one ring. A basic photonic interconnect switch, a complex photonic interconnect switch and/or a photonic interconnect network are integrated into an optoelectronic chip and including at least two elementary photonic interconnect switches.

Photonic interconnect switches and network integrated into an optoelectronic chip

A photonic interconnect switch is formed by first and second linear optical waveguides that cross to form an intersection. First and second redirecting photonic ring resonators are coupled together in an intermediate optical coupling zone and are controllable with an electrical signal. The first ring resonator is coupled to the first optical waveguide in a first optical coupling zone. The second ring resonator is coupled to the second optical waveguide in a second optical coupling zone.
