Abstract: A Bragg grating includes a lower waveguide layer, a middle waveguide layer disposed on the lower waveguide layer, an upper waveguide structure disposed on the middle waveguide layer opposite to the lower waveguide layer, and a buried layer. The upper waveguide structure includes upper waveguide elements that are arranged on a surface of the middle waveguide layer, and that are spaced apart from one another by cavities. The buried layer fills the cavity. The middle waveguide layer has a refractive index lower than that of each of the lower waveguide layer and the upper waveguide elements. The lower waveguide layer has a doping type the same as that of the middle waveguide layer. A method for manufacturing the Bragg grating is also provided.
