Replica-molded electro-optic polymer Mach–Zehnder modulator
A Mach–Zehnder electro-optic polymer amplitude modulator is fabricated by a simple and high-throughput soft-stamp replica-molding technique. The modulator structure incorporates the highly nonlinear and stable chromophore, AJL8, doped in amorphous polycarbonate. Single-arm phase-retardation results in a halfwave voltage sVpd of 8.4 V at 1600 nm. The on/off extinction ratio is better than 19 dB,...
متن کاملHigh speed silicon Mach-Zehnder modulator.
We demonstrate a silicon modulator with an intrinsic bandwidth of 10 GHz and data transmission from 6 Gbps to 10 Gbps. Such unprecedented bandwidth performance in silicon is achieved through improvements in material quality, device design, and driver circuitry.
متن کاملIntegrated InGaAsP MQW Mach-Zehnder modulator
We demonstrate the use of an area selective zinc in-diffusion process as a simple and efficient technique for the fabrication of integrated photonic devices. By controlling the profile of the diffusion front and the zinc depth the insertion losses of the devices can be minimized. Using this technique an integrated 1 2 Mach–Zehnder analog modulator was fabricated. Our experimental results demons...
متن کاملAdiabatic thermo-optic Mach-Zehnder switch.
In this Letter, we propose and demonstrate a high-speed and power-efficient thermo-optic switch using an adiabatic bend with a directly integrated silicon heater to minimize the heat capacity and therein maximize the performance of the thermo-optic switch. A rapid, τ=2.4 μs thermal time constant and a low electrical power consumption of P(π)=12.7 mW/π-phase shift were demonstrated representing ...
متن کاملDouble-pass acousto-optic modulator system
A practical problem that arises when using acousto-optic modulators sAOMsd to scan the laser frequency is the dependence of the beam diffraction angle on the modulation frequency. Alignment problems with AOM-modulated laser beams can be effectively eliminated by using the AOM in the double-pass configuration, which compensates for beam deflections. On a second pass through the AOM, the beam wit...
