ABSTRACT:
Polysilicon formed over an underlying insulator may be highly selectively etched. Therefore, polysilicon may be selectively etched using tetraalkylammonium hydroxide or NH4OH to define a nitride waveguide. The resulting nitride waveguide may have smoother surfaces resulting in less loss of light intensity as light travels through the nitride waveguide.
