概要(目的・用途・実施内容)/ Abstract (Aim, Use Applications and Contents)

We use the Takeda cleanroom to fabricate photonic structures such as waveguides, photonic crystal and cavities on various substrates such as silicon, silicon nitride and lithium niobate. The photonic nanostructures are then used for light-matter coupling with 2D materials

実験 / Experimental

We began by spin-coating an electron-beam resist onto the chosen substrate, such as silicon-on-insulator (SOI), silicon nitride, or lithium niobate. Using electron beam lithography, we defined the photonic nanostructure patterns onto the resist, followed by resist development. For lithium niobate, an additional sputtering step is required to deposit a layer of chromium as hard mask for the subsequent etching step. The patterns were then transferred to the substrate using inductively coupled plasma etching. After removing the remaining resist, additional processing steps, such as wet etching with hydrofluoric acid for substrates with a silicon dioxide layer, were performed as needed to create air-suspended nanophotonic structures or other desired geometries.

結果と考察 / Results and Discussion

We successfully fabricated photonic nanostructures, including waveguides and photonic crystals, on a variety of substrates such as silicon, silicon nitride, and lithium niobate. Fig.1 shows a nanobeam photonic crystal cavity with grating couplers. Fig.2 shows a grating photonic crystal cavity with grating outcouplers for use with fiber in- and out-coupling. The optical properties of these structures were confirmed through photoluminescence and laser transmission measurements. The waveguide modes and cavity resonances, typically in the near-infrared regime, enable efficient light-matter coupling with van der Waals materials that are optically active in the same wavelength range. The flexibility in substrate choice allows for tailoring the nanophotonic structures to specific material and application requirements.
