Vertical junction silicon microdisk modulators and switches.
Vertical junction resonant microdisk modulators and switches have been demonstrated with exceptionally low power consumption, low-voltage operation, high-speed, and compact size. This paper reviews the progress of vertical junction microdisk modulators, provides detailed design data, and compares vertical junction performance to lateral junction performance. The use of a vertical junction maxim...
متن کاملSlow-light photonic crystal switches and modulators
We discuss the performance of slow-light enhanced optical switches and modulators fabricated in silicon. The switch is based on photonic crystal waveguides in a directional coupler geometry, and the dispersion of the device is engineered to allow a switching length as short as 5 μm and rerouting of optical signals within 3 ps. The 3 ps switching time is demonstrated using free carriers in the s...
متن کاملSolid-state Power Switches for Hpm Modulators
Power modulators for pulsed microwave applications, generally utilizing a thyratron-switched PFN, typically produce 50-120 kV, 1-2 kA microsecond timescale pulses with sub-microsecond ( -100-200 nsec) risetimes. This paper will review an investigation into the feasibility of utilizing certain solid-state power switches at the relatively fast speeds required for HPM modulators. Two very differen...
متن کاملMaximally Confined Silicon Microring and Microdisk Modulators and Switches
Silicon resonant microdisk and microring modulators and switches based on free-carrier depletion and injection were designed and fabricated with the aim of minimizing device radius to theoretical bend-radiation imposed limits. Minimizing device area serves to simultaneously maximize resonator free-spectral-range, minimize switching energy, and maximize component density, all critical parameters...
متن کاملOptical Peaking Enhancement in High-Speed Ring Modulators
Ring resonator modulators (RRM) combine extreme compactness, low power consumption and wavelength division multiplexing functionality, making them a frontrunner for addressing the scalability requirements of short distance optical links. To extend data rates beyond the classically assumed bandwidth capability, we derive and experimentally verify closed form equations of the electro-optic respon...
