چکیده

Abstract We proposed a compact 1 × multimode interference (MMI) optical modulator with high extinction ratio. A triply coupled quantum well structure is designed for the core layer enhancement of quantum-confined Stark effect, and MMI waveguide isolation trenches symmetrically designed. The length reduced by 30%, wavelength dependence was compared that observed in previously reported modulator. Owing to both electroabsorption effect electric-field induced refractive index change multiple-quantum-well layer, ratio expected be approximately 45 dB at an operating voltage 3.3 V.

Demonstration of Compact 2x2 Multimode Interference Coupler on Silicon Nanomembrane

We designed and fabricated a 2x2 tapered multimode interference coupler on silicon-oninsulator with dimensions of 12.88μm×3μm. The device keeps a 50/50 splitting ratio over a 50nm bandwidth. To our best knowledge this is the most compact 2x2 MMI demonstrated. ©2010 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (130.3120) Integrated optics devices; (130.2790) Guided waves

PINIP based high-speed high-extinction ratio micron-size silicon electrooptic modulator.

We propose an electrooptic device in silicon based on a p-i-n-i-p device structure for charge transport. The proposed device exhibits carrier injection time of 10 ps and extraction time of 15 ps enabling 100 GHz operation. When integrated into a resonator the proposed micron-size device operates at 40 Gb/s with 12 dB extinction ratio and 4fJ/bit/micron-length power dissipation, limited in speed...

Proposal Title : A Quantum Dot Optical Modulator

During the period covered by this report, we have successfully overcome several technical challenges for the device fabrication and made solid progress heading toward a functional optical modulator of 635 nm working wavelength. This is the wavelength of the commercially available DVD lasers. We explored the parameter space of the RF sputtering deposition and spin-coating process. Low absorption...

All-fiber multimode-interference-based refractometer sensor: proposal and design.

A novel all-fiber refractometer sensor is proposed, which is based on multimode interference in the multimode fiber core section sandwiched between two single-mode fibers. A wide-angle beam propagation method in the cylindrical coordinate is employed as the modeling tool for simulation and design of the proposed refractometer sensor. The design for a refractometer is presented that shows that t...

Large extinction ratio optical electrowetting shutter.

A large extinction ratio optical shutter has been demonstrated using electrowetting liquids. The device is based on switching between a liquid-liquid interface curvature that produces total internal reflection and one that does not. The interface radius of curvature can be tuned continuously from 9 mm at 0 V to -45 mm at 26 V. Extinction ratios from 55.8 to 66.5 dB were measured. The device sho...
