  • Patent number: 11585970
    Abstract: A single crystal multilayer low-loss optical component including first and second layers made from dissimilar materials, with the materials including the first layer lattice-matched to the materials including the second layer. The first and second layers are grown epitaxially in pairs on a growth substrate to which the materials of the first layer are also lattice-matched, such that a single crystal multilayer optical component is formed. The optical component may further include a second substrate to which the layer pairs are wafer bonded after being removed from the growth substrate.
    Type: Grant
