Polymeric integrated-optical waveguides are prepared in a planar polymer chip by UV-laser lithographic methods. The waveguide samples are irradiated by an excimer laser at a wavelength Λ=248 nm with various irradiation parameters (different fluencies and irradiation doses). Mach-Zehnder interferometer is employed and the refractive index depth profiles of the waveguide samples are obtained. This profile covers two regions having exponential and Gaussian shapes. The model field distributions strongly depend on the refractive index of each region. The mode field distribution and the effective mode indices for each region have been calculated on the basis of a theoretical model and the experimentally measured data. 相似文献

Theoretical analysis for InGaP/AlGaInP laser diodes with different ridge waveguide structures is performed to investigate
the lateral mode behavior using advanced device simulation. The internal physical mechanisms including temperature-induced
changes in the refractive index profile, spatial hole burning effect, lateral carrier distribution, and gain profile variation
with increasing input current are discussed by theoretical calculation to analyze the effects of different ridge structures
on the lateral mode behavior of 660-nm AlGaInP laser diodes. The simulation results show that the use of narrow and shallow
ridge geometry is the approach to obtaining single mode operation. Furthermore, it is found that the different values of the
ridge height cause the lateral carrier distribution within the active region to be varied, which is also an important factor
in determining the emergence of the first order lateral mode in addition to the geometry-dependent waveguide cutoff condition. 相似文献

We report a new configuration of a reflection-type confocal scanning optical microscope system for measuring the refractive index profile of an optical waveguide. Several improvements on the earlier design are proposed; a light emitting diode at 650 nm wavelength instead of a laser diode or He-Ne laser is used as a light source for better index precision, and a simple longitudinal linear scanning and a curve fitting techniques are adapted instead of a servo control for maintaining an optical confocal arrangement. We have obtained spatial resolution of 800 nm and an index precision of 2 × 10−4. To verify the system’s capability, the refractive index profiles of a conventional multimode fiber and a home-made four-mode fiber were examined with our proposed measurement method. 相似文献

In this paper, finite element method (FEM) mode analyses of planar slab optical waveguide having complicated refractive index profile are presented. We try to estimate the dispersion graph, mode cut-off condition, group delay and waveguide dispersion for the case of α-power and chirped-type refractive index profile. In order to obtain the more accurate result, we have derived the higher-order polynomial, which establishes the suitable relationship between b and V for different profile of optical waveguide. On the basis of the derived polynomials, the waveguide dispersion is analyzed for different type of refractive index profile waveguide. Our study shows that the waveguide dispersion can be substantially reduced when we deployed the optical waveguide having linearly chirped-type refractive index profile. Earlier too, the arbitrary refractive index profile has been analyzed but to the best of our knowledge chirped-type refractive index profile has not been analyzed till date for the case of planar slab optical waveguide. 相似文献

Recently a new type of lithium niobate waveguide was suggested for potential nonlinear optic applications. The waveguide consists of a uniform large core and a leaky coupled slab for realizing a lateral optical confinement to support the fundamental spatial mode propagation. Inside the waveguide, the slab layer is required to have a refractive index slightly lower than that of the core, but higher than that of the substrate. Lithium niobate doped with magnesium oxides shows an increased refractive index that is dependent on the dopant's concentration. Therefore, in order to fabricate such waveguides, the pulsed laser deposition approach was used to study the growth of such composition-modified lithium niobate as the slab layer. The as-grown films were characterized on its expitaxy, structure, and optical performance, via X-ray diffraction analysis, optical guiding experiment, etc. 相似文献

We report on non-lithographic laser direct writing fabrication of optical waveguides by using a 4′-hydroxy-4-nitroazobene dye-functionalized polymer film. The polymer film reveals permanent change of refractive index at high laser illumination intensity. A focused continuous wave low power green laser beam at 532 nm wavelength is used to directly write waveguide structures on the polymer film. The magnitude of refractive index increase at film surface is about 0.006. One-step laser writing results in graded index waveguides in film depth direction under ambient conditions without pre- and post-processing. As a by-product, the laser writing also results in a very small air valley at the boundary between the laser written and non-written regions which may contribute in part although minimal to the waveguide lateral confinement and can be used for visual observation of waveguide patterns. The fabricated waveguide is found to be stable and easily reproducible. 相似文献

A novel method is described for fast frequency modulation or frequency control of diode lasers that avoids problems associated with bias current modulation, namely, amplitude modulation and thermal phase delays. The method is based on amplitude-modulated, noninterfering control light with a wavelength near the transparency region of the laser diode, which specifically modifies the spectral gain profile to yield a constant gain but a controllable refractive index at the lasing wavelength. This permits amplitude-modulation-free frequency modulation at modulation frequencies up to the relaxation oscillation frequency. A phase lock between the emissions of two extended-cavity diode lasers that could not be achieved with bias current modulation was achieved by this method. 相似文献

The film mode matching method was used to analyze the inter waveguide coupling losses in a passive asymmetric twin waveguide
caused by waveguide width and refractive index variation for both resonant and adiabatic coupling at a wavelength of 1,550 nm.
The reasons for power losses are shown. It is demonstrated that tapering the mode beating section of the resonant coupler
can increase the fabrication tolerance of resonant coupling without increasing the coupling length. 相似文献

The material dispersion of a tapered fiber is described by Sellmeier's equation. The dependence of refractive index on wavelength and doping concentration is discussed. A He-Ne laser with the output wavelength of 632.8 nm is used in the experiment. When the cutoff frequency of the fiber is less than the laser frequency, the guiding modes of a singl~-mode fiber (at 1550 am) are investigated. The results show that the original single-mode fiber becomes a multi-mode waveguide. The propagation and mode coupling of the light in the taper region are analyzed. By controlling the taper end size of the fiber, the unique tapered fiber can convert a multi-mode beam into a single-mode one. 相似文献

采用高电流注入条件下的载流子扩散方程和复折射率波导模型情况下的亥姆霍兹方程,对980nm高功率激光二极管外延材料的非对称和对称波导结构的光吸收损耗进行了理论计算。采用低压金属有机化学气相外延技术制备了两种波导结构的外延材料,并制作了激光器件,进行了光电特性测试和对比分析。理论计算和实验结果表明:与对称波导结构相比,非对称波导结构外延材料并未减小光吸收损耗,而是减小了串联电阻,因而降低了器件的焦耳热损耗,从而提高器件的电光效率。 相似文献

We report on the temperature dependent lasing characteristics of InAs/GaAs quantum dot lasers under continuous wave mode. The five-stacked InAs quantum dots were grown by gas-source molecular beam epitaxy with slightly different thickness. Ridge waveguide laser with stripe width of 6 μm was processed on the growth structure. The characteristic temperature was measured as high as infinity in the temperature range of 80–180 k. With the increase of injection current, the lasing spectra of laser diode broaden gradually at low temperature of 80 k. However, when the operation temperature increases from 80 to 300 K, the width of lasing spectrum reduces gradually from 40 to 2.0 nm. The lasing process is obviously different from that of a reference quantum well laser which widens its width of lasing spectra by increasing operation temperature. These experiments demonstrate that a carrier transfer from the smaller size of dots into larger dots caused by thermal effect play an important role in the lasing characteristic of quantum dot lasers. In addition, the laser can operate at maximum temperature of 80 °C under continuous wave mode with a maximum output power of 52 mW from one facet at 20 °C. A wavelength thermal coefficient of 0.196 nm/K is obtained, which is 2.8 times lower than that of QW laser. The low wavelength thermal coefficient of quantum dot laser is mainly attributed to its broad gain profile and state filling effects. 相似文献

The near-field lateral intensity distribution of 405 nm (Al,In)GaN laser diodes is measured in time and wavelength domain. Spectral properties, relaxation oscillations, and filaments are observed. A thermally induced change of the refractive index profile is found to be the driving force behind changes in the dynamic mode configuration. With rate equations those effects can be described in first approximation. 相似文献

迭代法重建平板光波导折射率分布 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
提出了一种用于重建渐变折射率平板光波导折射率分布的方法,这种方法通过数值法求解亥姆霍兹方程.从光波导的低阶模开始采用迭代法顺次对各个模式对应的“转折点”位置进行校正.并多次重复迭代以消除“转折点”外折射率分布的变化对相应模式“转折点”位置的影响。借助WKB近似原理说明了这种方法迭代过程中“转折点”坐标的收敛性。对折射率按照指数规律变化的平板光波导的折射率分布重建结果证明这种方法具有较高的精度。分析表明:这种方法克服了WKB法固有的缺陷,即忽略模式“转折点”外折射率分布对相应模式传输常鞋的影响和“转折点”处相移的不确定性,因而比逆WKB法具有更好的自洽性和精确性。 相似文献

An integrated-optical strip-waveguide is directly written into the surface of a planar polymer substrate by an excimer laser beam. The mode field distribution, the surface refractive index and the refractive index depth profile of the waveguide have been examined. The intensity distribution of the mode field strongly depends on the refractive index depth profile, on the light coupling conditions and on the waveguide fabrication process parameters. 相似文献

We report the optical characterization of an InP structure constituted by waveguides coupled to microcavity disk resonators. The lateral waveguide confinement is obtained by deep reactive ion etching through the guiding layer. We demonstrate the possibility of tuning optically the resonance wavelength into the illuminating disk resonator. We obtained a blueshift of 3 nm by laser irradiation at 980 nm corresponding to a photoinduced change in the effective refractive index of 6 x 10(-3). The InP structure behaves as a tunable optical demultiplexer. 相似文献

Planar waveguides in neodymium-doped calcium niobium gallium garnet crystals produced by proton implantation 下载免费PDF全文
In this work, the fabrication and optical properties of a planar waveguide in a neodymium-doped calcium niobium gallium garnet(Nd:CNGG) crystal are reported. The waveguide is produced by proton(H~+) implantation at 480 ke V and a fluence of 1.0×10~(17) ions/cm~2. The prism-coupling measurement is performed to obtain the dark mode of the waveguide at a wavelength of 632.8nm. The reflectivity calculation method(RCM) is used to reconstruct the refractive index profile. The finite-difference beam propagation method(FD-BPM) is employed to calculate the guided mode profile of the waveguide.The stopping and range of ions in matter 2010(SRIM 2010) code is used to simulate the damage profile induced by the ion implantation. The experimental and theoretical results indicate that the waveguide can confine the light propagation. 相似文献
