摘要： An optical module that processes an input optical signal and outputs a processed optical signal is disclosed. The optical module provides a housing and an optical processing device in the housing. The housing provides an optical input port and an optical output port in a first wall thereof in side-by-side arrangement. A third wall of the housing only provides RF terminals. Second and fourth walls of the housing provide DC terminals. Electrical connection between the DC terminals with DC pads on the device is realized through a wiring substrate whose top avoids an optical path from the optical input port to the input port of the device.

摘要： A semiconductor-based optical modulator is presented that includes a separate phase control section to adjust the amount of chirp present in the modulated output signal. At least one section is added to the modulator configuration and driven to create a pure “phase” signal that will is added to the output signal and modify the eiφ term inherent in the modulation function. The phase modulation control section may be located within the modulator itself (with one segment on each arm, driven by the same input signal), or may be disposed “outside” of the modulator on either the input waveguiding section or the output waveguiding section. The phase control section may be formed to comprise multiple segments (of different lengths), with the overall phase added to the propagating signal controlled by selecting the different segments to be energized to impart a phase delay to a signal propagating through the energized section(s).

摘要： Optical ring resonator devices are disclosed that can be used for optical filtering, modulation or switching, or for use as photodetectors or sensors. These devices can be formed as microdisk ring resonators, or as open-ring resonators with an optical waveguide having a width that varies adiabatically. Electrical and mechanical connections to the open-ring resonators are made near a maximum width of the optical waveguide to minimize losses and thereby provide a high resonator Q. The ring resonators can be tuned using an integral electrical heater, or an integral semiconductor junction.
