- and
- an antenna layer disposed on the multiple-quantum-well layer and having a shape of a plurality of stripes parallel to one another.
A method of fabrication a broadband waveplate device, the method comprising:
- forming, on a substrate, a multiple-quantum-well layer in which well layers and barrier layers are alternately stacked;
- forming a first conductive layer on the multiple-quantum-well layer;
- removing the substrate;
- forming a temporary conductive layer on a surface of the multiple-quantum-well layer in a direction away from the first conductive layer;
- forming a sacrificial layer on the temporary conductive layer;
- forming, in the sacrificial layer, a plurality of openings parallel to one another;
- forming an antenna layer having a shape of a plurality of stripes parallel to one another, by removing portions of the temporary conductive layer exposed through the plurality of openings of the sacrificial layer;
- and
- removing the sacrificial layer.
