摘要：针对两节独立反相集总电极聚合物Y型耦合器电光开关响应速度慢的问题,通过对该器件两节电光区的波导进行推挽极化,设计了一种无偏置行波电极高速电光开关.为了获得低的驱动电压、良好的阻抗匹配和光波与微波间较小的折射率失配,对电极参数做了设计和优化.通过对施加的方波开关信号做傅里叶变换并结合行波传输线理论,给出了一种用于建模和表征器件高频响应的解析分析法.对该器件的数值计算结果表明,在1 550nm中心工作波长下,其3dB状态电压为0 V,开关电压为2.68V,上分支状态电压和下分支状态电压分别为-1.34V和＋1.34V,器件的插入损耗和串扰分别小于3.55和-30dB,10%~90%上升时间和下降时间均为3.90ps,截止开关频率可达128.2GHz.

摘要：Based on poled guest-host electro-optic (EO) polymer DR1/SU-8, a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) EO modulator operated at 1.55 μm is proposed. For achieving high response speed and high EO modulation efficiency, both waveguide structure and electrode structure are especially optimized. The impedance match and less index mismatch are achieved. The final characteristic impedance of electrode is about 49.4 Ω, and the microwave index and the light-wave index are 1.5616 and 1.6006, respectively. The device is fabricated using wet-etching technique and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etching technique, and its performance is measured at 1.55 μm. Experimental results show that when the applied voltage is tuned, the modulator can be changed from ON state to OFF state. The insertion loss at ON state is 12 dB and the extinction ratio between ON and OFF states is about 10 dB. The high response speed is in nano-second level for a square-wave signal. Therefore, the modulator possesses potential applications in high-speed optical networks on chip.

摘要：利用四个平行耦合单环谐振器作为基本路由单元,数值模拟了一种可路由三种信道波长的四端口光路由器.为了实现单模传输、低传输损耗以及微环波导和信道波导的相位匹配,优化了基本路由单元的结构参量.给出了路由器的器件架构和设计方法,计算了链路光谱、插入损耗、串扰等路由特性.在选定的三个信道波长(1 550、1 551.6、1 553.2nm)下,器件沿不同路径的插入损耗范围为0.02~0.6dB,器件串扰的范围为-23.41^-37.71dB.与具有相同波导参量的基于交叉耦合双环谐振器的四端口光路由器相比,该四端口光路由器在串扰和波长选择性方面略显不足,但其使用的微环数量由8个降低为4个,插入损耗由1.62dB降低为0.02dB.

摘要：利用两组串联五环谐振器以及它们与两信道波导的交叉耦合作用,优化设计并模拟了一种超低串扰2×2新型聚合物电光开关.为了表征器件的输出光功率特性,给出了器件结构、分析理论和相关公式.为了在下行端口(drop端口)得到箱型光谱响应以及极低的串扰和插入损耗,优化了微环谐振级数和耦合间距.对器件输出光功率和输出光谱的模拟分析结果显示,器件交叉和直通态间的切换电压为4V,交叉和直通态下两端口间的串扰分别为-66dB和-54.7dB,插入损耗分别为2.34dB和0.24dB.在1GHz方波信号作用下,器件drop端口的上升和下降时间分别为15ps和90ps.由于聚合物微环的弯曲半径仅为19.45μm,因此该器件具有超紧凑的尺寸,其长度和宽度仅为0.407mm,约为马赫-曾德尔干涉仪或者定向耦合器等一般结构聚合物电光开关长度的1/10.依赖于小的封装尺寸和极低的串扰,该器件可以高密度地集成在光电子芯片上,在光片上网络中光信号的控制方面具有潜在的应用.
