Cover Story: A photonic integration platform capable of integration of active–passive InP-based photonic devices without the use of materials regrowth is proposed. The platform makes use of adiabatic active-layer waveguide connection to move the optical beam between active and passive devices. The coupled surface grating with a bottom gold reflector can achieve high chip-to-fiber coupling efficiency of 88.3% at 1550 nm. The adiabatic active-layer mode-connection structure can have optical loss of lower than 1%. The active device section can achieve an optical gain of 20 dB/mm with the use of only 3 quantum wells. This platform can harbor similar advantages to those of the heterogeneous integration method but can be applied to pure InP-based photonic integrated circuits. View this paper
