Star Photonics® team can fabricate a prototype of your device in Silicon platform. We are licensed to work, mainly, at various facilities in Israel (such as TAU Nano Center and BINA) and are experienced to manufacture a prototype at standards higher than academic level. We deal mainly with chip architecture comprising of optical devices (cm-to-nm range), micro-electronics devices and electro-optical (integrated electronics with optics) devices. We can also do standard packaging of the chip including input/output ports.

 

Our expertise is in standard photolithography and Electron Beam lithography (EBeam). Masks are designed by software such as CleWin© and Raith© editors. This allows fabrication of optical elements at the nanoscale range and microelectronics of shallow junction architecture.

 

Following are some of the elements that we specialize in the Silicon platform:

• Ring/Racetrack resonators, Fabry-Perot resonators, Photonic Crystal resonators,  Mach-Zehnder Interferometers,

      Y-couplers, Directional Couplers, Tapers and other similar elements of the Integrated Optics family.

• BRAGG reflectors made of tandem layers or waveguide corrugation (tapered grating).

• PN/PIN diodes and MOS capacitors.

• Optical filters and sensors.

• Electro-optical modulators supporting RF operation (switching rate of 25GHz for regular 50Ω line).
