Abstract

• We demonstrate the fabrication of high Q Ge28Sb12Se60 ring resonators in an all chalcogenide platform through electron-beam lithography, lift-off and thermal reflow. We achieve a Q factor of (3.9 ± 0.2) × 105 in the reflowed ring resonators and (2.5 ± 0.2) × 105 in the reactive ion etched ring resonators at 1550 nm. We measure the line roughness of these devices to estimate the scattering loss. We determine the material and scattering losses of the waveguide and find an additional 1.1 dB/cm excess loss from surface absorption. We fabricate Ge23Sb7S70 waveguides with 0.6 dB/cm of losses and show that Ge23Sb7S70 waveguides do not experience the same kind of excess loss when fabricated under the same conditions. This indicates the excess loss is related to the chemical composition of Ge28Sb12Se60 compound.
