Design of Graphene Polarization Independent Electro-Optical Modulator Based on Inverted Ridge Structure

  • 摘要: 该文通过对偏振无关调制原理的分析,提出了一种将石墨烯片在硅波导中以一定角度倾斜放置的倒脊型结构硅基石墨烯偏振无关电光调制器。在1.55 μm的工作波长下,该器件调制的TE和TM模式有着相同的有效模式参数变化,且吸收参数差异很小。该器件在1.5~1.6 μm的工作波长下能够实现对TE和TM模式高于18 dB的消光比,且模式间的消光比差异低于4 dB,其3 dB调制带宽在理想状态下可达到123 GHz。

     

    Abstract: Based on the analysis of the principle of polarization independent modulation, a new type of inverted ridge polarization independent electro-optic modulator is proposed, which is inclined to place the graphene sheet in a silicon waveguide at a certain angle. At the wavelength of 1.55 μm, the effective mode parameters of TE and TM modes are the same, and the difference of absorption parameters is very small. In addition, the device can achieve extinction ratio higher than 18 dB for TE and TM modes at wavelengths from 1.5 μm to 1.6 μm, and the difference of extinction ratio is less than 4 dB. The 3 dB modulation bandwidth of the device can reach 123 GHz in ideal state.
