  • Abstract
    An RIE (CH4/H2) process is presented for the production of up to 1 mu m-deep first-order Bragg gratings with a grating constant of Lambda =0.23 mu m in InP and GaInAsP. A Bragg grating filter on a GaInAsP/InP rib waveguide showed a stopband width as large as 5 nm at -10 dB and a nearly rectangular shape of the filter function.
