摘要
The authors report a ductile dicing process for manufacturing optical-quality facets in a multi-layered silicon nitride platform without the need for polishing. A surface roughness (Sa) of 1.5 nm was achieved. This technique was extended to fabricate ridge waveguides, and the results and characterization are reported.
