Abstract
We present progress towards a generic approach to
integrate 2D photonic components embedded in 3D PhCs and
couple them to single-mode ridge waveguides. 3D photonic
crystals are fabricated by spatially selective
self-assembly of silica and PMMA beads into an fee
lattice on a SOI patterned substrate. 2D defect layers
are fabricated on 3D PMMA opals by controlled removal of
specific beads through electron beam lithography.
Simulations of mode matching and coupling efficiencies
are presented, which provide guidelines for the
fabrication of experimental structures on inverted
silicon opals.
