A method of forming a reflecting surface on an optical component is disclosed. The method includes forming a first mask so as to protect a ridge region of a light transmitting medium. The ridge region is a region where a ridge of a waveguide will be formed. The method also includes performing a first etch of the light transmitting medium so as to form a side of the ridge. The first mask defines a profile of the side of the ridge during the first etch. The method further includes performing a second etch of the light transmitting medium so as to form the reflecting surface. The first mask defines a profile of the reflecting surface during the second etch. |
