Size reduction for integrated MZI devices by utilizing slow light in one-dimensional grating

Slow light effect at 1D grating band edge is shown to be able to shorten photonic devices on integrated Mach-Zehnder Interferometer platform. Dispersion calculations according to coupled-mode theory indicate that length reduction by a few times is attainable. Multi-segment design is proposed to incr...

Zusammenfassung:Slow light effect at 1D grating band edge is shown to be able to shorten photonic devices on integrated Mach-Zehnder Interferometer platform. Dispersion calculations according to coupled-mode theory indicate that length reduction by a few times is attainable. Multi-segment design is proposed to increase transmission in the slow light region.
