摘要
从理论与实验两方面研究了GaAs定向耦合型行波光调制器。首次报导了重掺杂n+型薄层对电场分量相当于导体,对磁场分量相当于绝缘体这一发现;首次提出了一种具有对称宽电极的新型结构,并研制成功开关电压为8.5V,微波折射率约为3.6,在30GHz情况下传输损耗小于10dB/cm,根据s参数测试3dB带宽达到32GHz的行波调制器。
The traveling wave directional coupler modulators on GaAs have been studied in theory and experiment. We found that the n+ layer can be treated as a Perfect conductor for electric field and as an insulator for magnetic field at first time. We proPOsed a new structure of traveling wave modulator with a symmetric and wide electrode. The device switch voltage is 8. 5V, microwave index is about 3. 6, the transmission loss is less than 10dB/cm at 30 GHz, and the 3dB optical modulation bandwidth is greater than 32 GHz (by the measured s-parameter).
