Thin Film Lithium Niobate (TFLN)

SiPhotonIC offers its proprietary 400TFLN platform developed for 1550nm and 1300nm operation for all compatible applications.

The process is supported by a complete Process Design Kit (PDK) under the xPDK format available for both proprietary and open-source suites (Luceda, Synopsys, KLayout, GDS Factory, NAZCA, L-edit, GdsPy).
The xPDK package includes the necessary material to launch the tape out right away (i.e. design manuals, DRC rules & decks and reference designs) and can be obtained after registering and signing an NDA.

The TFLN nano-fabrication service is available both as an on-demand service and through scheduled MPW runs. We support a wide range of production volumes, from small quantities of PICs to full wafer batches.

To obtain the PDK and relevant design material, register through “ACCESS“.

 

STANDARD TFLN PROCESS

The 400TFLN platform offers the following building blocks to use for your passive and high speed IC.  The PDK libraries include full set of photonic components to launch your IC design and enhance them with your components:

      • Spot size converters

      • Vertical grating couplers (focusing and long taper)
      • Crosses
      • Directional couplers and Y-splitters
      • MMIs
      • Thermo-optic phase shifters
      • Electro-optic phase shifters
      • Electro-optic modulators (>60 GHz)

Standard TFLN delivery times (for on-demand runs, for MPWs refer to each MPW schedule)

  • Standard TFLN: 2.5 months FRO (2 months with rapid cycle premium)
