Abstract:
Example embodiments relate to active-passive waveguide photonic systems. An example embodiment includes a monolithic integrated active/passive waveguide photonic system. The system includes a substrate having positioned thereon at least one active waveguide and at least one passive waveguide. The at least one active waveguide and the at least one passive waveguide are monolithically integrated and are arranged for evanescent wave coupling between the waveguides. The at least one active waveguide and the at least one passive waveguide are positioned so that at least a portion of each waveguide does not overlap the other waveguide, both in a height direction and in a lateral direction with respect to the substrate.

Claim (Index 12):
The method according to  claim 11 ,\n wherein monolithically integrating comprises fabricating active III-V nanoridge waveguides each comprising a freestanding body portion and a supporting bottom fin portion, wherein the freestanding body portion is characterized by that part of the active III-V nanoridge waveguide which is growing out vertically and laterally from the supporting bottom fin portion of the active III-V nanoridge waveguide, wherein the supporting bottom fin portion is in contact with the substrate, wherein monolithically integrating comprises fabricating passive Si photonic structures, and wherein monolithically integrating comprises providing a radiation coupler between at least one active III-V nanoridge waveguide and at least one passive Si structure, the underlying passive Si structure being offset vertically towards the substrate with respect to the freestanding body portion of the active III-V nanoridge waveguide.
