Bending Loss Analysis of Chalcogenide Glass Channel Waveguides for Mid-Infrared Astrophotonic Devices
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study, the bending losses of chalcogenide glass channel optical waveguides consisting an As2Se3 core and As2S3 lower cladding layer were numerically evaluated across astronomical N-band, which is mid-infrared spectral range between 8 µm 12 wavelengths. The results reveal design rules for bent in astrophotonic devices.

Mid-infrared characterization of solution-processed As2S3 chalcogenide glass waveguides.
An etch-free and cost-effective deposition and patterning method to fabricate mid-infrared chalcogenide glass waveguides for chemical sensing applications is introduced. As(2)S(3) raised strip optical waveguides are produced by casting a liquid solution of As(2)S(3) glass in capillary channel molds formed by soft lithography. Mid-IR transmission is characterized by coupling the output of a quan...
متن کاملChalcogenide Glass Optical Waveguides for Infrared Biosensing
Due to the remarkable properties of chalcogenide (Chg) glasses, Chg optical waveguides should play a significant role in the development of optical biosensors. This paper describes the fabrication and properties of chalcogenide fibres and planar waveguides. Using optical fibre transparent in the mid-infrared spectral range we have developed a biosensor that can collect information on whole meta...
متن کاملSolution-processed chalcogenide glass for integrated single-mode mid-infrared waveguides.
Chalcogenide glass materials exhibit a variety of optical properties that make them desirable for near- and mid-infrared communications and sensing applications. However, processing limitations for these photorefractive materials have made the direct integration of waveguides with sources or detectors challenging. Here we demonstrate the viability of two complementary soft lithography methods f...
متن کاملIdentifying the best chalcogenide glass compositions for the application in mid-infrared waveguides
We prepared numbers of GeAsSe glasses and investigated their thermal stability and optical properties in order to search the best glasses with relatively high glass transition temperature Tg, strong structural stability, low optical loss and high optical nonlinearity. Through our systematical measurements, we concluded that the glasses with a mean coordination number around 2.45-2.5 are the bes...
متن کاملLow-loss chalcogenide waveguides on lithium niobate for the mid-infrared.
We demonstrate low-loss chalcogenide (As(2)S(3)) waveguides on a LiNbO(3) substrate for the mid-IR wavelength (4.8 μm). Designed for single-mode propagation, they are fabricated through photolithography and dry-etching technology and characterized on a mid-IR measurement setup with a quantum cascade laser. For straight waveguides, propagation loss as low as 0.33 dB/cm is measured and low-loss b...
