A novel device that converts the order of modes in an integrated-optic multimode waveguide was proposed and fabricated. The device consists of two mode splitters and tapered waveguides. Its operation at a wavelength of 1.55 microm was confirmed by observation of the output mode profiles. The cross talk measured by an indirect method was >10.2 dB. The excess loss with reference to a straight multimode waveguide was 1.5 dB, compared with the propagation loss of a straight multimode waveguide. 相似文献

Loss measurements on straight and curved multimode strip-waveguides made from photosensitive sheets by a photolithographic process are reported. The cross section of the waveguides vary from 20 μm × 50 μm to 100 μm × 100 μm. The loss is detected by measuring the light scattered out of the waveguide. Waveguides fabricated by a modified technology are compared to conventional ones at wavelengths of 0.633 μm and 0.83 μm. Using the modified technology losses of 2 dB/cm at λ = 0.83 μm have been measured for both straight and curved (radius 30 mm) guides. 相似文献

An electrooptically induced optical waveguide can be formed by applying a DC voltage between electrodes fabricated on the surface of a crystal with strong electrooptic coefficients (for example, strontium barium niobate). Calculations of the refractive index profile and the optical mode size for such waveguides are presented. Approximate solutions for the fundamental mode are used to analyse the power coupling between a single-mode step-profile fibre and these waveguides. The power transmission losses in the straight and S-shaped waveguides are estimated by using a finite-difference beam propagation method (FD-BPM). The calculations predict that a new kind of modulator/switch can be realized with the induced waveguides. The important characteristics of these devices are discussed and compared with LiNbO3 optical waveguide modulators. 相似文献

In this paper, we develop a model for the effects of waveguide sidewall roughness on the output uniformity and phase of a 3-dB MMI splitter. We achieve this by investigating analytically the effect of sidewall roughness on mode coupling in the MMI section of the splitter using the coupled mode and coupled power equations. Using these equations, the subsequent impact of mode coupling losses on the splitter output uniformity and phase is calculated and results for 1 × 2 and 2 × 2 splitters are presented and compared. Finally, to illustrate the impact of sidewall roughness on the operation of a waveguide device, the response of a Mach Zehnder interferometer comprising 2 × 2 splitters is investigated. 相似文献

We propose a beam steering type optical switch employing a phase shifter. It consists of collimating waveguide mirrors, an
arrayed-waveguide which has deep trenches incorporating polymer materials, and input/output waveguides. The incident light
is guided to the front mirror, where it is then collimated, and input to the arrayed waveguide. The number of trenches filled
with polymer linearly increases in order. The refractive index of the polymer can be controlled with temperature, and the
propagation direction of the output light from the arrayed waveguide can also be controlled. A switch with 15 waveguides in
the array has been fabricated. The chip size is about 2:5 × 9:0 mm2, the insertion loss is 10 dB, and the extinction ratio is about 10–13 dB. 相似文献

An InGaAsP/InP waveguide variable optical attenuator (VOA) is proposed in this paper. The device consists of straight input and output waveguides and an S-bend waveguide. An electrode is deposited on a portion of the waveguide to form an active region so that its refractive index can be modified by a current injection, resulting in the variation of the transmitted optical power. The beam propagation method is employed in the numerical simulation and the device structure is optimized using a genetic algorithm. The optimized VOA has a low excess loss (<1 dB) and a large dynamic range of about 40 dB. 相似文献

Optical waveguide fabrication and integration with a micro-mirror inside photosensitive glass by femtosecond laser direct writing 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Photosensitive glass is a potentially important material for micro-fluidic devices that can be integrated with micro-optical
components for biochemical analysis. Here, we demonstrate the fabrication of optical waveguides inside glass by femtosecond
laser direct writing. The influence of the laser parameters on the waveguide properties is investigated, and it is revealed
that the waveguide mode can be well controlled. The single mode is achieved at a low writing energy, while the multimode is
achieved with increasing energy. In spite of a longitudinally elongated elliptical shape of the cross-sectional profile, the
far-field pattern of the single-mode waveguide shows an almost symmetric profile. The measured propagation loss and the coupling
loss are evaluated to be ∼0.6 dB/cm and ∼1.6 dB at a wavelength of 632.8 nm, respectively, under the conditions of 1.0–2.0 μJ
pulse energy and 200–500 μm/s scan speed. The increased optical loss is associated with a higher waveguide mode at higher
writing energy. Furthermore, the integration of waveguides and a micromirror made of a hollow microplate inside the glass
is demonstrated to bend the laser beam at an angle of 90° in a small chip. The bending loss is estimated to be smaller than
0.3 dB.

Planar waveguides were formed in Nd:YVO4 crystals by 3.0-MeV Si+-ion implantation at doses of 1×1013–1.5×1015 ions/cm2 at room temperature. The effective refractive indices of the waveguide propagation modes were measured by using a prism-coupling
method. It was found that the number of the propagation modes is dependent on the doses for the waveguides in Nd:YVO4. The atom displacement in the near-surface region (about 2 μm beneath the surface) of the Nd:YVO4 crystal induced by the implantation was simulated by using the TRIM 98 (transport and range of ions in matter) code. The
possible reasons for the waveguide formation are discussed in a primary way.

Fluorinated polyimide waveguides were fabricated by CO2 laser direct-writing. The poly(amic acid) micro-region irradiated by CO2 laser beam was studied with FT-IR micro-spectroscopy. The FT-IR spectra implied that the laser induced thermal-imidized polyimide was of optical anisotropy, and the imidization degree of exposed micro-region increased with the rising of output laser power. The increased aspect ratio of waveguide and smoothness of surface can be achieved by increasing the pre-cured temperature (below 120°C) and writing speed, and optimizing laser power and the distance between the lens and the annular aperture. The guided light was clearly confined to the core of the fabricated waveguide, which means this technique can be used for fluorinated polyimide waveguide fabrication. 相似文献

A bianisotropic waveguide can be defined as a cylindrical waveguide filled with bianisotropic materials, and all the conventional waveguides are special cases of the bianisotropic waveguide. In this paper, guided wave propagation in bianisotropic waveguide is analyzed by the theory of linear operators, and two types of adjoint waveguides and inner products are introduced respectively. Based on the concept of adjoint waveguides, the functional expressions of the field equations can be obtained, and from which the eigenvalue problem of the bianisotropic waveguide can be solved. Also, bi-orthogonality relations of guided modes are derived. These biorthogonality relations reported here can be used to expand electromagnetic fields in terms of a complete set of modes in straight bianisotropic waveguide. As an example of application, mode matching formulae for a discontinuity problem are given. 相似文献

The spectral response of an arrayed-waveguide grating (AWG) demultiplexer is calculated by simulating the field propagation in the output section of an AWG with a wide-angle beam propagation method (BPM) in a cylindrical coordinate system. As in a practical design of an AWG demultiplexer, each output waveguide consists of two straight sections connected by a bending section. The spectral response obtained by the present algorithm is more accurate than those obtained with two popular approximate methods, namely, the conventional overlapped integral method and the standard BPM for radially straight and infinitely long output waveguides. With the present algorithm, the dependence of the spectral response on the parameters of the output section is analyzed. The channel crosstalk and the 3 dB passband width of the spectral response depend mainly on the length of the first straight section, the end separation and the angular separation of the output waveguides. The bending section results in an asymmetrical spectral response with remarkable sidelobes which can be reduced by increasing the bending radius. 相似文献

We propose a new type of arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) multiplexer/demultiplexer based on modified group refractive index. This device is composed by an array of straight and parallel waveguides of equal length and each waveguide consist of two sections with different width. The length of the two sections are changed from a waveguide to the adjacent one following a linear dependence resulting in a wavelength dispersive waveguide array. An example of the device design for silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform is provided and numerical simulations have been carried out for various arrayed waveguide parameters. We demonstrate that the group index modification can be used for tailoring device dispersion properties, and that it can also result in new dispersion characteristics predicted numerically not observed in conventional AWGs. Additional advantages are that the demultiplexer does not necessarily require bending waveguide sections as in a conventional AWG (de)multiplexers, and thus yields highly compact devices with potentially very low insertion loss. Channel spacing of 1 nm have been predicted for sub-micron waveguides sizes. In this paper it is also proposed a novel wavefront converter based on waveguide array lens-like element with waveguides broadened sections. Numerical results for different input/output geometries are analized. 相似文献
