    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system to facilitate using selective etching to form optical components on a circuit device. The system operates by receiving a substrate composed of a first material including a buffer layer composed of a second material. The system forms a sacrificial layer composed of a third material on the buffer layer. Next, the system forms an optical fiber core composed of a fourth material on the sacrificial layer. After the optical fiber core has been formed, the system performs an etching operation using a selective etchant to remove the sacrificial layer. The system also applies a cladding layer to the optical fiber core.

    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a process that uses selective etching to form a structure on a silicon substrate. The process starts by receiving the silicon substrate with a first layer composed of a first material, which includes voids created by a first etching operation. The process then forms a second layer composed of a second material over the first layer, so that the second layer fills in portions of voids in the first layer created by the first etching operation. Next, the process performs a chemo-mechanical polishing operation on the second layer down to the first layer so that only remaining portions of the second layer, within the voids created by the first etching operation, remain. The system then forms a third layer composed of a third material over the first layer and the remaining portions of the second layer, and performs a second etching operation using a selective etchant to remove the remaining portions of the second layer, thereby creating voids between the first layer and the third layer.

    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for co-fabricating strained and relaxed crystalline, poly-crystalline, and amorphous structures in an integrated circuit device using common fabrication steps. The system operates by first receiving a substrate. The system then fabricates multiple layers on this substrate. A layer within these multiple layers includes both strained structures and relaxed structures. These strained structures and relaxed structures are fabricated simultaneously using common fabrication steps.

    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates construction of electromagnetic, optical, chemical, and mechanical systems using chemical endpoint detection. The system operates by receiving a system description that specifies multiple components, including a first component and a second component. The system fabricates the first component and the second component using selected construction materials. The system also creates a first interconnection structure on the first component and a second interconnection structure on the second component. These interconnection structures can be created using a sacrificial layer and chemical endpoint detection. Next, the system brings the first component and the second component together by connecting the first interconnection structure and the second interconnection structure. These interconnection structures align the first component to the second component so that accurate alignment can be achieved.
