    [0001] TECHNICAL FIELD The field of the invention is that of photonics and optoelectronics on micro-nanostructured silicon. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The invention more specifically targets a locally pre-structured substrate for the production of photonic components intervening in particular in data transmission networks by optical fiber and / or in free space or in integrated photonic circuits (intrapuce / inter-chip). . STATE OF THE PRIOR ART The different active and passive photonic components form a complete component library which makes it possible to perform all the functions necessary for the processing of information by light on a chip, from transmission to reception, passing through by low loss transmission, wavelength division multiplexing, and high frequency signal manipulation. This library contains lasers, RF components (modulators, photodiodes), passive components (guides, (of) multiplexers, resonant filters, couplers) and (de) coupling networks. Each of these components requires specific preparations to achieve their best performance.
    [0002] FIG. 6 is a sectional view showing active and passive photonic components Cp made on a Silicon-OnInsulator (SOI) silicon-on-insulator substrate comprising a BOX oxide layer sandwiched between a solid silicon part 1 and a layer 2. Four types of photonic components C1-C4 are shown in FIG. 6, from left to right a C1 laser, a C2 modulator, a passive transmission component C3 and a coupler to optical fiber C4.
    [0003] The laser C1 comprises a III-V optical semiconductor amplifier 3 resting on an oxide layer 4 which covers a ridge waveguide 5 formed from the thin film 2 of the SOI substrate. The modulator C2 comprises a pn or pin 6 type diode modulation section formed by structuring and doping the thin film 2 of the SOI substrate and covered with the oxide layer 4. The passive component C3 comprises a ridge waveguide 7 formed from the thin layer 2 of the SOI substrate and covered with the oxide layer 4. A metal layer 8 can be integrated into the oxide layer 4 at the end of the BEOL (Back-End Of Line) manufacturing process. to serve as a heating element. The coupler to optical fiber C4 comprises a coupling network 9 formed by structuring the thin film 2 of the SOI substrate and covered with the oxide layer 4. The advent of integrated photonic circuits raises compatibility problems between these different photonic components C1-C4, in particular between passive components and active components. Indeed, certain intrinsic parameters derived from the nature of the materials used and / or the very functionality of the components require particular attention during the design. As the refractive index of silicon is naturally sensitive to temperature variations, most passive components are also very sensitive, while some components of the same circuit take advantage of this feature to make space-frequency adjustments (sometimes essential to overcome manufacturing uncertainties). Other active components such as hybrid laser sources generate (and undergo) also harmful heating whose optimization is essential for issues of reliability and aging. The integration of the different components on the same substrate therefore causes compatibility and efficiency problems. It would thus be necessary both to be able to locally control the undesirably generated heat by certain optoelectronic components such as lasers, to increase the resistivity of the substrate for the performance of RF optical components such as modulators, to decrease / cancel the thermal sensitivity of optical components. in silicon, recovering lost optical power in the direction of the substrate for fiber couplers, and finally heating some optical components quickly and efficiently. Current solutions only address these issues on a case-by-case basis and still do not allow for full integration. A solution is therefore sought which makes it possible to improve the overall performance of all or part of the photonic chain (emission, modulation, transmission, etc.) by making the best of each type of photonic component jointly. DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The invention aims to provide a solution in this sense and proposes for this purpose a locally pre-structured substrate for the production of photonic components, comprising: a solid portion made of silicon; a first localized region of the substrate, comprising: a layer, called heat dissipation layer, made in a localized manner on the surface of the solid part and formed of a material whose refractive index is less than that of silicon; a waveguide on the heat dissipation layer; a second localized region of the substrate, distinct from the first region, comprising: an oxide layer made in a localized manner on the surface of the solid part, the oxide having a thermal conductivity lower than that of the material of the heat dissipation layer; ; o a waveguide on the oxide layer.
    [0004] The invention also relates to a photonic circuit comprising a semiconductor optical amplifier resting on a localized region of a substrate comprising a solid portion made of silicon, said region comprising: a so-called heat dissipation layer, made in a localized manner; surface of the solid part of a material whose refractive index is less than that of silicon; a waveguide on the heat dissipation layer; a layer covering the waveguide in an oxide whose thermal conductivity is lower than that of the heat dissipation layer. The invention also extends to the method of manufacturing the pre-structured substrate according to the invention, and in particular to a method comprising the steps of: forming on a first zone of a solid portion of silicon, a layer, called heat dissipation, in a material whose refractive index is lower than that of silicon; forming on a second zone of the solid silicon portion a layer of an oxide whose thermal conductivity is lower than that of the heat dissipation layer material; - Transfer from a donor substrate of the material constituting the waveguide of the first region and the waveguide of the second region respectively on the heat dissipation layer and the oxide layer of the second region.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PARTICULAR EMBODIMENTS The invention relates to a locally pre-structured substrate for producing photonic components. It also extends to a photonic component made from such a substrate, as well as to a method of manufacturing such a substrate. The invention makes it possible to anticipate the specific needs of each type of photonic component by locally structuring the substrate in advance in a suitable manner to guarantee the best performance of each type of component. The issues of compatibility, efficiency, thermal and optical management are integrated in the same physical medium, thus minimizing the post-manufacturing steps, while guaranteeing good performance for the entire photonic circuitry.
    [0005] FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic sectional view of such a pre-structured substrate in an exemplary embodiment of the invention illustrating all the photonic components / functions that can be realized. It will be noted in particular, by comparison with FIG. 6, that the silica layer of an SOI substrate is locally substituted in the context of the invention by layers / structures of interest for the active and passive photonic components / functions located above. All of these components / functions can be optionally implemented according to the type of photonic circuit to be produced, so as to minimize the post-manufacturing steps of the substrate.
    [0006] With reference to FIG. 1, the substrate S according to the invention comprises a solid part made of silicon 10, and a first region R1 located on the substrate which comprises a layer 11, called heat dissipation layer, made in a localized manner on the surface of the part 10 and formed of a material whose refractive index is less than that of silicon, and a waveguide 12 on the heat dissipation layer 11. The substrate S furthermore comprises a second localized region R2 of the substrate which comprises an oxide layer 13 made in a localized manner on the surface of the solid part 10, the oxide having a thermal conductivity lower than that of the material of the heat-dissipating layer 11. The second region further comprises a waveguide 14 on the oxide layer 13. The waveguides 12, 14 may be edge waveguides as shown. They are covered with an oxide layer 22, typically an SiO 2 layer. The waveguides 12, 14 are preferably made of monocrystalline silicon. In particular, as will be detailed below, the constituent material of the waveguides 12, 14 may have been transferred from the same donor substrate to, respectively, the heat dissipation layer 11 of the first region R 1 and the oxide 13 of the second region R2. The heat dissipation layer 11 is for example made of AlN, Al 2 O 3, ZnS, CaP, SiN. It forms a circumscribed area of the substrate that forms a directional heat transport channel, which may be surrounded by oxide 13 so as to be thermally insulated. As represented in FIG. 2, which represents a photonic circuit Cp that can be produced in the context of the invention, the first region R1 of the pre-structured substrate can be used for the constitution of a first laser-type photonic component Cp1. The photonic circuit Cp then comprises a semiconductor optical amplifier 23, in particular a 111-V material amplifier, resting on the first region R1 of the substrate S formed of the heat dissipation layer 11, the waveguide 12 and the layer oxide 22 covering the waveguide 12.
    [0007] The heat dissipation layer 11 makes it possible to better dissipate the heating of the laser than an oxide layer, such as a silica layer of an SOI substrate. Taking the example of a heat dissipation layer 11 consisting of alumina AIN, it reduces by 40% the maximum temperature within the laser compared to what the laser would expect if the heat dissipation layer 11 was replaced by a layer of silicon oxide, coming to effectively dissipate the heat towards the solid part 10 of the substrate. Such a layer also has no impact on the optical properties of the laser given the small difference in the effective index of the guided optical mode in comparison with the silica (<10).
    [0008] As shown in FIG. 2, the second region R2 of the pre-structured substrate may be used for the constitution of a second photonic component Cp2 of passive guide component type. The oxide layer 13 of the second region R2 (FIG. 1) can be an SiO 2 layer, the second photonic component Cp 2 then forming a standard passive guide component, or a TiO 2 layer, the second photonic component Cp 2 then forming a passive guiding component with low sensitivity to temperature changes. Silicon has an intrinsic sensitivity to temperature changes that modifies its refractive index and therefore the propagation properties of the electromagnetic waves that are confined thereto. This recurrent problem of silicon photonics is usually dealt with by local or global control of the temperature, which drastically increases the total energy consumption of a photonic circuit. It is possible to reduce this thermo-optical sensitivity, and possibly achieve athermic operating conditions, thanks to certain materials whose thermal properties are opposed to those of silicon in a complementary manner and compatible with the optical guiding functions. In particular, titanium dioxide satisfies both the thermo-optical properties sought and the constraints of industrial manufacturing in the context of a CMOS-compatible integration. It can therefore be usefully used as a material constituting the oxide layer 13 of the second region R2.
    [0009] Returning to FIG. 1, the pre-structured substrate may comprise a third localized region R3 of the substrate and formed on a localized surface portion of the solid portion 10 in which ions are implanted. The third region R3 comprises an oxide layer 13 on said surface portion 15 and a pn or pin 16 type diode modulation section. The oxide layer of the third region is for example a silica layer. The modulation section 16 is formed of suitably structured monocrystalline silicon and doped to produce a pn or pin diode. The use of silicon substrates for high-frequency electrical interconnections requires adaptation of the substrate impedance in order to reduce the problems of parasitic capacitances and detrimental losses for radiofrequency (RF) components (noise generation that propagates in the substrate and impacts neighboring RF circuitry). This problem of cross-talk between RF components on silicon can be treated by increasing the resistance of a solid silicon substrate to prevent propagation of signals between RF components. The invention thus proposes to include in the pre-structured substrate a localized region where the solid silicon part is rendered highly resistive by implantation of ions (for example H +, or As +), namely said surface portion 15. In an alternative embodiment, the third region R3 further comprises a passivation layer (not shown) interposed between said surface portion 15 and the oxide layer 13, for example a polysilicon passivation layer, also called polycrystalline silicon. . This passivation layer aims to passivate the interface between the oxide layer and the high resistivity silicon where a strong surface parasitic conduction could be created.
    [0010] It will be noted that the surface portion 15 of high resistivity silicon is obtained by ion doping or implantation and that it is therefore sensitive to the heat treatments undergone during the various manufacturing steps. A manufacturing process preserving too much heat treatment will be described later which keeps the high resistivity.
    [0011] As shown in FIG. 2, the third region R3 of the pre-structured substrate may be used for the constitution of a third photonic component Cp3 of the modulator type. However, the high resistivity pre-structuration can also benefit other RF components (electrical connections in the same plane for example), thus making the substrate according to the invention even more versatile (allowing, for example, the integration of ordered). Referring back to FIG. 1, the pre-structured substrate may comprise a fourth localized region R4 of the substrate which comprises a multilayer mirror made in a localized manner on the solid part 10 and a coupling section towards the optical fiber 18 on the multilayer mirror. The multilayered mirror is formed of an alternation of oxide layers 17-1, typically SiO 2 layers, and silicon layers 17-2. It makes it possible to optimize the coupling of the photonic circuit towards an optical fiber by recovering the lost intensity towards the substrate. For medium and long distance applications (i.e. from a few meters to several kilometers), the preferred means of transport is optical fiber. It is therefore necessary to transfer the light of the photonic circuit to the existing fiber network by an optical coupler. This may be an inverted (tap) reverse tap or a coupling network that transfers the sub-micron sized laser beam to a single mode or multimode fiber that supports a mode with a diameter greater than 10 μm.
    [0012] These optical couplers ensure efficient transfer (low losses). This type of coupling is improved in the context of the invention by adding a reflector (the multilayer mirror) under the (un) coupling network in order to efficiently recover the lost optical signal portion in the direction of the substrate. For example, a (de) coupling network on a mirror composed of two periods of silica / silicon makes it possible to reflect 84% of the incident signal in the direction of the fiber whereas the same network produced on an SOI substrate reflects only 65% of the incident signal. As shown in FIG. 2, the fourth region R4 of the pre-structured substrate may be used for the constitution of a fourth coupler to optical fiber photocouple component Cp4.
    [0013] Still with reference to FIG. 1, the pre-structured substrate may comprise a fifth localized R 5 region of the substrate which comprises an oxide layer 13 on the solid part 1, said oxide layer incorporating a metal layer 19, and a section coupling to optical fiber 18 on the oxide layer 13.
    [0014] The metal layer 19 here plays the role of mirror to provide the same reflection function of the optical signal portion lost towards the substrate. The pre-structured substrate may further comprise a sixth region R6 localized substrate which comprises a layer 13 on the solid portion 10, said layer incorporating a metal layer 20, and a waveguide 21 on said layer 13. The metal layer 20 makes it possible to heat optical components efficiently and very quickly. It can be integrated in an oxide layer, such as a silica layer, or in a layer of a material whose thermal conductivity is greater than that of the oxide and whose refractive index is lower than that of the oxide. silicon, for example a layer made of AlN, Al 2 O 3, ZnS, CaP, or SiN.
    [0015] The addition of metal levels for photonics is generally done only during BEOL steps, so after the production of optoelectronic components. Depositing a metal layer during the previous stages of manufacture is a priori impossible in the current state of industrial manufacturing tools (due to equipment contamination problems in particular). By coming to structure and encapsulate in advance a metal level in a dedicated substrate for photonics, the invention brings multiple advantages. First, the multilayer patterning previously proposed as an integrated light reflector under the coupling sections may be envisioned with a single level of metal encapsulated between two oxide levels.
    [0016] Then, having metal underneath certain components makes it possible to predispose in situ heating elements such as those added today during the BEOL steps, necessary for good spatial-frequency adjustments. This type of functionalization of the substrate also makes it possible to integrate a metal level inside a multilayer system with high thermal conductivity (which is not the case in BEOL where the metal levels are encapsulated in silica, BCB, or sometimes SiN). Thus the material, for example AIN, proposed as heat sink for lasers can be advantageously used as a heat conducting material for space-frequency adjustments of optical components, without degradation of (electro-) optical performance. An improvement in the dynamics (response time) of the heating / cooling is also achieved with such a configuration. The electrical connection of such a metal level as a heating element can be achieved through standard vias, ie dug above the structure (type BEOL), or through vias on the rear face called TSV (Through Silicon Via).
    [0017] If the different localized regions of the pre-structured substrate are called first region, second region, ..., sixth region, this scheduling should not be understood to mean that a higher order region can be present only if all lower order regions are also present. On the contrary, the substrate may comprise, optionally, one and / or the other of these R1-R6 regions taken alone or in any combination. A standard diagram combining all the previously described functionalities is nevertheless envisaged according to which a complete substrate is divided into elementary photonic cells, where each elementary cell groups dedicated zones for each functionality. The average size of each component family is known and the connections are provided within a cell by silicon guides with low propagation losses. This standard diagram is illustrated in FIG. 5, where there are two types of elementary photonic cells. A first type of CT cells concerns transmitters: there are L lasers, Mod modulators, Mux multiplexers, C couplers. The second type of CR cells concerns the receivers: there are C couplers, DeMux demultiplexers, PD photodiodes. The invention is not limited to the pre-structured substrate as previously described, but extends to a photonic circuit made from such a substrate as shown in FIG. 2, and in particular to a photonic circuit Cp1 comprising a semiconductor optical amplifier 22 resting on a localized region R 1 of a substrate comprising a solid silicon part 10, said region R 1 comprising: a layer 11, called heat dissipation layer, made in a localized manner on the surface of the massive part 10 of a material whose refractive index is lower than that of silicon; a waveguide 12 on the heat dissipation layer 11; a layer 22 covering the waveguide 12 in an oxide whose thermal conductivity is lower than that of the heat dissipation layer 11. An encapsulation layer 24, for example of SiN, TiO 2, AlN or BCB, covers the photonic circuit Cp. Next, a method of manufacturing the pre-structured substrate according to the invention is described. This description is made with reference to Figures 3a-3g and 4a-4k which illustrate two possible embodiments of this method. As illustrated in FIGS. 3a and 4a, the manufacture of the pre-structured substrate according to the invention uses as a starting base a monocrystalline silicon substrate 10, called the solid part of silicon in this document.
    [0018] As illustrated in FIGS. 3c-3d and 4c-4d, the manufacture of the pre-structured substrate then comprises a step of forming on a first zone of the solid silicon part 10, of a layer 11, called heat dissipation layer, in a material whose refractive index is less than that of silicon, and a step of forming on a second zone of the solid silicon part 10 of a layer 13 into an oxide whose thermal conductivity is lower than that of the material of the thermal dissipation layer 11. Then, as illustrated in FIGS. 3e-3g and 4j-4k, the method comprises the transfer from a donor substrate 30, 40 of the constituent material of the waveguide of the first region and the guide of FIG. waves of the second region respectively on the heat dissipation layer 11 and the oxide layer 13 of the second region. In the context of the variant illustrated in FIGS. 3a-3g, called the "simple transfer" variant, this transfer step consists in transferring a monocrystalline silicon layer which will then be locally structured, and possibly locally doped, to form, according to the various desired pre-structured regions, the corresponding monocrystalline silicon optoelectronic structures (waveguides, modulation sections and coupling sections in particular). In the context of the variant illustrated in FIGS. 4a-4k, called the "double transfer" variant, this transfer step consists in transferring the desired monocrystalline silicon optoelectronic structures. The "simple report" variant is the following. Starting from a massive silicon portion 10 (FIG. 3a), and when a fourth optical fiber coupling region R4 is desired, it precedes the formation of the multilayer mirror on an area of the solid part by alternating the deposit of layers of silica 17-1 and silicon layers 172 (FIG. 3b). The deposition of a silica layer 13 on the solid portion of silicon 10 is then carried out (FIG. 3c). A TiO 2 layer may also be deposited locally when it is desired to form a pre-structured athermic component region. A heat dissipation layer may also be locally deposited. And one or more metal layers may be locally integrated within the silica layer 13 or the heat dissipation layer to serve as a heater or mirror. A localized etching of the silica layer 13 is then performed, followed by the localized deposition of the heat dissipation layer 11 of the first region R1, for example in AIN (FIG. 3d). Then, as shown in FIGS. 3e-3f, the transfer from a donor substrate 30 of a monocrystalline silicon layer 31 is then carried out, which will serve as a constituent material for the optoelectronic structures intended to equip the various desired regions, in particular the waveguide. waves 12 of the first region and the waveguide 14 of the second region for which said constituent material is transferred respectively to the heat dissipation layer 11 and the oxide layer 13 of the second region. The donor substrate 30 may be a monocrystalline silicon substrate or an SOI substrate. The transfer can be performed according to the Smart CutTM method, the donor substrate 30 having been previously subjected to ion implantation to form a weakened zone where the donor substrate can be separated into two parts, one of which corresponds to the layer 31. Then, with reference to FIG. 3g, the different optoelectronic structures (waveguides 12, 14, modulation sections 16, coupling sections 14) are produced by lithography, doping, etching, deposition steps. oxide, polishing CMP, etc. applied to the reported layer 31. A silica layer 22 covers these different structures. This "simple report" variant has the advantage of simplicity.
    [0019] However, because of the heat treatments implemented in particular during the production of different optoelectronic structures, it can not make it possible to produce RF components using high resistivity silicon. The "double report" variant illustrated by FIGS. 4a-4k makes it possible to circumvent this difficulty.
    [0020] Starting from a massive portion of silicon 10, a localized surface region is subjected to implantation in order to form a surface portion of high resistivity (FIG. 4a). A passivation layer may cover this superficial portion. When a fourth optical fiber coupling region R4 is desired, the multilayer mirror is formed on an area of the solid part by alternating the deposition of silica layers 17-1 and silicon layers 172 (FIG. 4b). ). Next, (FIG. 4c) the deposition of a silica layer 13 on the silicon bulk portion 10 is shown. In the example shown, a TiO 2 layer 25 is deposited locally to form a pre-structured athermic component region. A heat dissipation layer may also be locally deposited. And one or more metal layers may be locally integrated within the silica layer 13 or the heat dissipation layer to serve as a heater or mirror. A localized etching of the silica layer 13 is then performed, followed by the localized deposition of the heat dissipation layer 11 of the first region R1, for example in AlN (FIG. 4d). Then, as represented in FIGS. then proceed to the formation of the different optoelectronic structures (waveguides 12, 14, modulation sections 16, coupling sections 14) by lithography steps, doping, etching, oxide deposition, CMP polishing, etc. implemented on a monocrystalline silicon substrate 35, said intermediate substrate. A silica layer 32 is deposited which covers these different structures. Then, as shown in FIGS. 4h and 4i, a (first) transfer of the optoelectronic structures 12, 14, 16, 18 from the intermediate substrate 35 to a substrate covered with a silica layer 42 in the example shown , said donor substrate 40. This transfer can be carried out according to the Smart CutTM method, the intermediate substrate 35 having been previously subjected to an ion implantation to form a weakened zone at which the intermediate substrate can be separated into two parts, of which one corresponds to the silica layer 32 and the optoelectronic structures 12, 14, 16, 18. At the end of this report, the optoelectronic structures 12, 14, 16, 18 are reversed on the donor substrate 40. A second report is made that allows to put these structures back to the place and to obtain a pre-structured substrate according to the invention. This second report consists in plotting the optoelectronic structures from the donor substrate 40 to the pre-structured silicon bulk part obtained at the end of the step illustrated in FIG. 4d. This transfer can be carried out according to the Smart CutTM method, the donor substrate 40 having been previously subjected to ion implantation to form a weakened zone, for example in the silica layer 32, 42, or in the donor substrate 40, in which case proceeds to a step of removal by etching or CMP of the residual silicon.
    [0021] The photonic circuit Cp of FIG. 2 can then be produced by finalizing the laser integration (bonding of the optical amplifier 23 to the first region), making the vias and contacts and depositing the encapsulation layer 24.25.
