Polarisation-insensitive strip-loaded waveguide for electro-optic modulators and switches

A polarisation-insensitive electro-optic (EO) waveguide consisting of a dye-doped TiO₂/SiO₂ slab and a SU-8 strip-loaded rib is designed and fabricated. By optimizing the refractive index and size of waveguide, a trade-off between polarisation-insensitive condition and large EO efficiency (optical field interaction with the EO material) is obtained. The average transmission loss of the waveguide is less than 2.0 dB/cm. A Mach-Zehnder (M-Z) interferometer intensity modulator based on this waveguide with excellent poling stability is fabricated and measured, exhibiting 7 V half-wave voltage with 1.8 cm EO interaction length and 2.7 cm total length. This strip-loaded structure is proved to be a valuable application in EO modulators and switches.

A novel electrode structure with a reverse-biased p⿿n diode for high speed polymer-infiltrated slot modulators

This paper demonstrates an alternative electrode structure for low power optical modulation based on a slotted waveguide geometry filled with E-O polymers. A reverse-biased p?n junction is constructed inside the slot waveguide for apply modulation voltage. With this structure, the fabrication tolerance of the slot based E-O modulator should be more flexible. Analysis shows that the modulation speed of our design is comparable with the through-etched slot modulator, at the level of picoseconds.

Plasmonic modulator utilizing three parallel metal-dielectric-metal waveguide directional coupler and elasto-optic effects

We report, for the first time, on the design of a plasmonic modulator working on the principle of the elasto-optic effects in a directional coupling structure, utilizing three parallel metal-dielectric-metal waveguides. We propose to achieve the active switching of the power propagation using the elasto-optic effect and optimize the extinction ratio of the optical modulation. The device is characterized and numerically analyzed using the finite-element-method at the wavelengths of 1.55 μm. For the modulator length of 2.33 μm, the extinction ratio of the modulation is nearly 14 dB, and the calculated attenuation loss is 4.5 dB. The calculated driving voltage is 4.8 V for the given modulator. The effect of the applied voltage on the modulation is also analyzed.     

Analytical model, analysis and parameter optimization of a super linear electro-optic modulator (SFDR > 130 dB)

An analytical model of a super linear optical modulator with high spurious-free-dynamic-range (SFDR > 130 dB) is presented and analyzed. The linear modulator is referred to as IMPACC which stands for Interferometric Modulator with Phase-modulating And Cavity-modulating Components. The modulator is based on a unique combination of a RF-driven phase-modulator (PM) and a ring resonator (RR) within a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) configuration. Our analysis shows that our design can achieve SFDR values which are ~ 20 dB higher than the standard MZI modulator and 3-5 dB from the Ring Assisted Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (RAMZI) modulator. Both PM and RR in the IMPACC are simultaneously driven by a RF signal of the same frequency, but not necessarily the same amplitudes. The analytical model shows that the combination of these two optical elements, with the proper choice of RF-driving and device parameters, can lead to four important and compelling consequences. First, it offers a wholistic and elegant model in which the standard MZI modulator and the RAMZI modulator are just special cases of IMPACC. Second, the model offers an excellent parameter optimization methodology for fast parameter (internal and/or external) selection and performance evaluation. Third, it provides additional degree of control through the introduction of an external control parameter, the RF power split ratio (F). Lastly, it demonstrates one unique feature of IMPACC such as adaptive SFDR characteristics, where manufacturing tolerances in the transmission coefficient (τ) of the RR can be compensated with proper adjustments of the external parameter of the power split ratio (F).
