This study shows a multimode interference (MMI) device maintains optical robustness after prolonged high-temperature exposure. An electro-optic (EO) MMI waveguide was developed for optical power control using active chromophore material.

Area of Science:

  • Photonics and Optical Engineering
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • Multimode interference (MMI) devices are crucial for optical signal processing.
  • Assessing the long-term optical robustness of MMI devices under thermal stress is essential for practical applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To experimentally verify the optical robustness of a 1x1 MMI device under prolonged high-temperature exposure.
  • To present an electro-optic (EO) MMI waveguide device for controlling optical output power.
  • To demonstrate the proof-of-principle switching operation of the EO-MMI device.

Main Methods:

  • Experimental testing of MMI device optical robustness at 70°C for 1050 hours with fiber butt coupling.
  • Fabrication of an EO-MMI waveguide device with an integrated electrode structure.
