Thermally fixed reflection gratings for infrared light in LiNbO(3):Ti:Fe channel waveguides.

چکیده
We present a narrow-bandwidth interference filter in an optical monomode LiNbO>(3):Ti:Fe channel waveguide operating in the infrared wavelength region around lambda = 1.55 microm . The filter consists of a thermally fixed refractive-index Bragg grating recorded with visible green light by use of a holographic technique. In a first approach we measure a reflectivity for the infrared light of 60% and a linewidth (FWHM) of 0.11 nm.

Photorefractive recording by a special mechanism in planar LiNbO(3) waveguides.
Recording of holographic gratings in z-cut LiNbO(3) waveguides with extraordinarily (TM) polarized light is demonstrated. In this geometry, photovoltaic currents perpendicular to the guiding layer and the grating vector set up space-charge fields. The mechanism has no equivalent in bulk material.

Focused ion beam (FIB) etching is receiving increasing attention for the fabrication of active integrated optical components such as waveguide amplifiers and lasers. Si-technology compatible low-loss Al2O3 channel waveguides grown on thermally oxidized silicon substrates have been reported recently. We used FIB milling for reflection grating definition on Al2O3 channel and ridge waveguides. Str...

We report our recent results on an optimization study of focused ion beam (FIB) nano-structuring of Bragg gratings in Al2O3 channel waveguides. By optimizing FIB milling parameters such as ion current, dwell time, loop repetitions, scanning strategy, and applying a top metal layer for reducing charging effects and improving sidewall definition, reflection gratings with smooth and uniform sidewa...
متن کاملOptical pulse compression based on nonlinear silicon waveguides and chirped Bragg gratings
Due to the growing demand for higher bandwidth, employing optical devices instead of electronic devices in data transmission systems has attracted much attention in recent years. Optical switches, modulators and wavelength converters are a few examples of the required optical devices. CMOS compatible fabrication of these devices, leads to much more growing of this technology. Optical pulse comp...
متن کاملMultiple-channel wavelength conversion by use of engineered quasi-phase-matching structures in LiNbO(3) waveguides.
We report difference frequency generation-based wavelength converters with multiple phase-matching wavelengths that use engineered quasi-phase-matching structures in LiNbO(3) waveguides. Multiple-channel wavelength conversion is demonstrated within the 1.5-mum band and between the 1.3- and 1.5-mum bands. With simultaneous use of M pump wavelengths, these devices can also be used to perform wave...
