Popis: | New developments in optical nonlinear polymers have now enabled the implementation of novel new devices. The most important element of these new devices is usually a coupled ring resonator system that can be tuned with an electric field. In this study we have analyzed the design considerations, for these rings, and show how to determine and optimize all of the critical parameters. In addition, we demonstrate how to make the key characterization tests that confirm the component’s performance. All of this is structured so that it can be extended to the newer and higher electro-optic coefficient materials that are currently being fabricated. Future devices using this technology are expected to play a major role in the rapidly expanding field of optical signal processing. |
