Optimized Digital Optical Switch Using Proton Exchanged Lithium Niobate Waveguides
The main emphasis in developing DOS has been on achieving low crosstalk (CT). CT in the order of -30 dB is acceptable in conventional DOS and below that value is hard to achieve. Relatively low drive voltage (or power requirements) is also necessary to optimized DOS. This paper depicts the design of Y-branched digital optical switches (DOS) with optimized on-chip area coverage, reduced driving ...
متن کاملNanophotonic lithium niobate electro-optic modulators.
Since the emergence of optical fiber communications, lithium niobate (LN) has been the material of choice for electro-optic modulators, featuring high data bandwidth and excellent signal fidelity. Conventional LN modulators however are bulky, expensive and power hungry, and cannot meet the growing demand in modern optical data links. Chip-scale, highly integrated, LN modulators could offer solu...
متن کاملSubwavelength nanophotonic structures in silicon waveguides
We review and discuss our recent studies of subwavelength grating (SWG) structures for engineering the refractive index of silicon microphotonic waveguides. Various applications are presented, such as fiber-chip coupling structures, waveguide crossings and athermal waveguides made with a polymer-silicon hybrid core. Keywords-Silicon photonics; subwavelength gratings; fiberchip coupler; waveguid...
متن کاملTailoring repulsive optical forces in nanophotonic waveguides.
We describe a mechanism and propose design strategies to selectively tailor repulsive-gradient-optical forces between parallel, nanophotonic waveguides via morphology augmented by slow-light band-edge modes. We show that at small separation lengths, the repulsive force can be made nearly 2 orders of magnitude larger than that of standard dielectric waveguides with a square cross section. The in...
متن کاملEtching of Lithium Niobate: From Ridge Waveguides to Photonic Crystal Structures
Recent progress of wet etching of Z-cut LN, of inductively coupled plasma (ICP-) etching of X-cut LN, and of ICP-etching of proton-exchanged X-cut LN is reported to fabricate low loss ridge guides, micromechanical, and photonic crystal structures. Introduction The development of lithium niobate (LiNbO3, LN) integrated optical devices requires etching techniques for a reliable fabrication of dee...
