First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of fabricating a photonic device on a silicon or germanium substrate comprising the steps of:
- providing a substrate including one of crystalline silicon or germanium;
epitaxially growing a multilayer distributed Bragg reflector on the substrate; and
epitaxially growing a photonic device including multilayers of single crystal IV material on the distributed Bragg reflector.

Abstract
A photonic structure including a substrate of either crystalline silicon or germanium and a multilayer distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) positioned on the substrate. The DBR includes material substantially crystal lattice matching the DBR to the substrate. The DBR includes a plurality of pairs of layers of material including any combination of IV materials and any rare earth oxide (REO). A photonic device including multilayers of single crystal IV material positioned on the DBR and including material substantially crystal lattice matching the DBR to the photonic device.
