Miniature 10 kHz thermo-optic delay line in silicon.
The scanning delay line is a key component of time-domain optical coherence tomography systems. It has evolved since its inception toward higher scan rates and simpler implementation. However, existing approaches still suffer from drawbacks in terms of size, cost, and complexity, and they are not suitable for implementation using integrated optics. In this Letter, we report a rapid scanning del...
متن کاملFiber Optic Delay Line Systems
The 5017 delay lines system, incorporates a high-speed lasers and photodiodes to provide exceptionally high performance. The unit provides high bandwidth and sensitivity to operate with large delays, plus wide dynamic range for operation over a variety of loss budgets.
متن کاملThe thermo-optic effect of Si nanocrystals in silicon-rich silicon oxide thin films
The thermo-optic effect of Si nanocrystals in silicon-rich silicon oxide (SRSO) thin films at 1530 nm is investigated. SRSO thin films, which consist of nanocrystal Si (nc-Si) embedded inside the SiO2 matrix, were prepared by electron-cyclotron-resonance plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition of SiH4 and O2 followed by a 30 min anneal at 1150 °C. The refractive indices of all SRSO films incr...
متن کامل10 Gb/s broadband silicon electro-optic absorption modulator
Article history: Received 9 December 2009 Received in revised form 22 March 2010 Accepted 22 March 2010 Here we propose a design for a novel broadband silicon electro-optic absorption modulator. The device is simply a 100 μm long silicon waveguide with a Schottky diode integrated in it. Modulation is achieved through free-carrier absorption, not interference effects, enabling operation over the...
متن کاملWideband silicon-photonic thermo-optic switch in a wavelength-division multiplexed ring network.
Using a compact (0.03 mm(2)) silicon-photonic bias-free thermo-optic cross-bar switch, we demonstrate microsecond-scale switching of twenty wavelength channels of a C-band wavelength-division multiplexed optical ring network, each carrying 10 Gbit/second data concurrently, with 15 mW electrical power consumption (no temperature control required). A convenient pulsed driving scheme is demonstrat...
