Abstract:
We demonstrate the electro-activation of funnel waveguides through the quadratic electro-optic effect in paraelectric potassiumlithium- tantalate-niobate. This allows us to achieve electro-optic intensity modulation in a single optical beam, a 1x2 switch, and finally the electrically controlled morphing of a single waveguide into a 1x2 and a 1x4 divider.
