  • Publication number: 20240118491
    Abstract: A photonic semiconductor device including a light-emitting component and a photonic integrated circuit is provided. The light-emitting component at least includes a gain medium layer, a first contact layer and a first optical coupling layer stacked to each other. The photonic integrated circuit includes a second optical coupling layer. The light-emitting component and the photonic integrated circuit are stacked in a stacking direction, the first optical coupling layer has a first taper portion, the second optical coupling layer has a second taper portion, and the first taper portion and the second taper portion overlap in the stacking direction. Accordingly, the light emitted from the gain medium layer may be transmitted to the second taper portion from the first taper portion by optical coupling in a short length of an optical coupling path.

  • Patent number: 9112025
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide LDMOS devices and fabrication methods. An N-type buried isolation region is provided in a P-type substrate. A P-type epitaxial layer including a first region and a second region is formed over the P-type substrate. The first region is positioned above the N-type buried isolation region, and the second region surrounds the first region. An annular groove is formed in the second region to surround the first region and to expose a surface of the N-type buried isolation region. Isolation layers are formed on both sidewalls of the annular groove. An annular conductive plug is formed in the annular groove between the isolation layers. The annular conductive plug is in contact with the N-type buried isolation region at the bottom of the annular conductive plug. A gate structure of an LDMOS transistor is formed over the first region of the P-type epitaxial layer.
