Abstract
Successful demonstration of selective area doping of planar glass samples for monolithic integration of optically passive and active devices on a single chip is presented. Salt solution of erbium was delivered onto pre-sintered germano-silicate samples via a syringe. The samples were then consolidated to form dense glass layers containing regions doped with rare earth. Erbium tri-chloride solution, 0.1 M. was used during the solution doping phase, with the resulting erbium atomic percentage ranging from more than 0.1-0.4, increasing linearly with the number of drips applied.
