Electronically controlled optical beam-steering by an active phased array of metallic nanoantennas.
An optical phased array of nanoantenna fabricated in a CMOS compatible silicon photonics process is presented. The optical phased array is fed by low loss silicon waveguides with integrated ohmic thermo-optic phase shifters capable of 2π phase shift with ∼ 15 mW of applied electrical power. By controlling the electrical power to the individual integrated phase shifters fixed wavelength steering...
متن کاملOptical phased-array beam steering controlled by wavelength.
A scheme for optical phased-array beam steering controlled by wavelength is proposed. In this scheme, the optical scanning device consists of arrayed optical waveguides with specific length differences, by which the desired phase slope that results in optical beam steering is formed at the ends of the waveguides and can be changed by varying the optical wavelength. By introducing the concept of...

متن کاملBeam steering for wireless optical links based on an optical phased array in silicon
The ability to steer optical beams, crucial to the operation of high-speed optical wireless links may be achieved using optical phased array antennas which have significant potential in this application. The beam formed by the phased array antennas is steered by tuning the relative phase difference between the adjacent antenna elements which may be achieved nonmechanically. In this paper, the c...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional free-space beam steering with an optical phased array on silicon-on-insulator.
We demonstrate a 16-channel, independently tuned waveguide surface grating optical phased array in silicon for two dimensional beam steering with a total field of view of 20° x 14°, beam width of 0.6° x 1.6°, and full-window background peak suppression of 10 dB.
