Evaluation of On - chip Integration of Magneto - optic Isolators
The recent development of on chip integration of magneto-optic isolators is reviewed. Two major categories of structural designs for waveguide isolator (nonreciprocal mode conversion and nonreciprocal phase shift) have both merits and short comings for integration. The advances in integration techniques and materials related developments in the last decade are a big step towards monolithic inte...
متن کاملFaraday polarisation mode conversion in semiconductor waveguides incorporating periodic garnet claddings
We report on our progress towards the integration of nonreciprocal optical elements in, for example, an integrated optical waveguide isolator on conventional semiconductor photonic platforms. Our approach uses an evanescent interaction with a magneto-optic iron garnet upper cladding. Specifically, ceriumand bismuthsubstituted yttrium and terbium iron garnets were investigated. Device fabricatio...
متن کاملExperimental Verification of a Novel Integrated Optical Isolator Concept
The experimental demonstration of a novel integrated optical isolator concept is presented. By using a transversely magnetized ferromagnetic metal as the electric contact of an active waveguide structure, the transverse magneto-optic Kerr effect induces nonreciprocal loss of the TM guided mode. Based on this principle we designed, fabricated and characterized the first version of an optical iso...
متن کاملDirect Wafer Bonding and Its Application to Waveguide Optical Isolators
This paper reviews the direct bonding technique focusing on the waveguide optical isolator application. A surface activated direct bonding technique is a powerful tool to realize a tight contact between dissimilar materials. This technique has the potential advantage that dissimilar materials are bonded at low temperature, which enables one to avoid the issue associated with the difference in t...
متن کاملCe:YIG/Silicon-on-Insulator waveguide optical isolator realized by adhesive bonding.
A waveguide optical isolator realized by adhesive bonding of a garnet die, containing a Ce:YIG magneto-optic layer, on a silicon-on-insulator waveguide circuit is demonstrated. The die was bonded on top of an asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometer using a 100nm thick DVS-BCB adhesive bonding layer. A static magnetic field applied perpendicular to the light propagation direction results in a non...
