Electro-optic reconfigurable two-mode (de)multiplexer on thin-film lithium niobate
Abstract:
We propose and demonstrate a compact electro-optic reconfigurable two-mode (de)multiplexer using the configuration of cascaded Mach-Zehnder interferometers formed on thin-film X-cut lithium niobate on silica. Our fabricated device, which is 9.5-mm long, can spatially switch between the two transverse-electric modes with an efficiency higher than 98% from 1530-1560 nm and beyond at an applied voltage of 6.5 V. The switching speed is faster than 30 ns. Our proposed mode switch could find applications in fiber-based and on-chip mode-division-multiplexing systems.

MOSFET: Enhancement Mode
In their basic form, enhancement-mode MOSFETs are typically non-conductive when the gate-source voltage (Vgs) is zero. This default 'off' state means no...
MOSFET: Depletion Mode
The primary characteristic of depletion-mode MOSFETs is their ability to conduct current between the drain and source terminals without gate bias. This inherent conductivity...
