Abstract:
A wavelength tunable optical transmitter includes a first waveguide receiving incident light through an input port and outputting the incident light to a first output port, a resonant modulator adjacent to the first waveguide and whose resonant wavelength is variable, and a second waveguide disposed optically in parallel to the first waveguide and outputting emitted light to a second output port. The resonant modulator includes a silicon resonator constituted by a crystallized silicon film in the form of a closed loop between the first and second waveguides, a first electrode within the silicon resonator and constituted by a silicon film of a first conductivity type, and a second electrode extending alongside part of the outer circumferential surface of the silicon resonator and constituted by a silicon film of a second conductivity type.
Abstract:
An optical coupler includes a tapered portion and a grating portion. The tapered portion has a width in a second direction increasing along a first direction substantially perpendicular to the second direction. The tapered portion includes first and second ends opposed to each other in the first direction. The first end has a first width, and the second end has a second width greater than the first width. The grating portion is connected to the second end of the tapered portion, and has a curvature radius greater than a distance to the first end of the tapered portion.
