Application of Wafer Direct Bonding Technique to Optical Nonreciprocal Devices

A wafer direct bonding technique enables one to integrate dissimilar crystals like a magnetooptic garnet on Si and III-V semiconductors, which facilitates fabrication of optical nonreciprocal devices on commonly used waveguide platforms. The surface-activated direct bonding technique is described, f...
