Enhanced electro-optical lithium niobate photonic crystal wire waveguide on a smart-cut thin film.
We report an electro-optically tunable photonic crystal linear cavity etched on a 200 nm lithium niobate waveguide ridge. The photonic crystal cavity and the ridge are both fabricated on a 1 μm thin film of lithium niobate obtained by smart-cut technology. The photonic crystal, of area 4x0.8 μm2, has been engineered to work in a slow light configuration so that the electro-optic effect is 20 ti...
متن کاملSuspended slab and photonic crystal waveguides in lithium niobate
Suspended waveguides have been widely applied to silicon-on-insulator structures because they are easily fabricated with processing techniques similar to those of integrated circuit design. However, it is difficult to fabricate such structures in lithium niobate, which is also a very important material for optoelectronics. One main challenge is the difficulty of etching lithium niobate. In this...
متن کاملSecond harmonic generation in nano-structured thin-film lithium niobate waveguides.
Integrated thin-film lithium niobate platform has recently emerged as a promising candidate for next-generation, high-efficiency wavelength conversion systems that allow dense packaging and mass-production. Here we demonstrate efficient, phase-matched second harmonic generation in lithographically-defined thin-film lithium niobate waveguides with sub-micron dimensions. Both modal phase matching...
متن کاملOptimized Digital Optical Switch Using Proton Exchanged Lithium Niobate Waveguides
The main emphasis in developing DOS has been on achieving low crosstalk (CT). CT in the order of -30 dB is acceptable in conventional DOS and below that value is hard to achieve. Relatively low drive voltage (or power requirements) is also necessary to optimized DOS. This paper depicts the design of Y-branched digital optical switches (DOS) with optimized on-chip area coverage, reduced driving ...
متن کاملControl of the properties of micro-structured waveguides in lithium niobate crystal.
We study numerically depressed-index cladding, buried, micro-structured optical waveguides that can be formed in a lithium niobate crystal by femtosecond laser writing. We demonstrate to which extent the waveguiding properties can be controlled by the waveguide geometry at the relatively moderate induced refractive index contrasts that are typical of the direct femtosecond inscription.
