Si3N4 provides low material absorption even for visible wavelengths and is therefore a suitable material to take advantage of the broadband flat absorption of graphene. Using optimized e-beam lithography processes high quality Si3N4 nanophotonic circuits are realized. Large single-layer CVD graphene films are mechanically transferred onto a nanophotonic chip and via subsequent lithographic structuring many hybrid graphene-photonic devices are fabricated simultaneously. This waveguide-integration of graphene allows for prolonged light-matter interactions. MZIs with extinction ratio beyond 40dB and microring resonators with optical Q factors up to 1.6 × 106 are used for the characterization of the graphene-light interaction. This approach leeds to an absorption ceofficient of 0.067 dB/µm.
