| 20090304327 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPLEMENTING OPTICAL DEFLECTION SWITCHING USING COUPLED RESONATORS - A method of implementing optical deflection switching includes directing a tuning operation at a specific region of coupled optical resonators coupled to an input port, a first output port and a second output port, the coupled optical resonator including a plurality of cascaded unit cells; wherein the tuning operation interrupts a resonant coupling between one or more of the unit cells of the coupled resonators so as to cause an input optical signal from the input port to be directed from the first output port to the second output port. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20100038736 | SUSPENDED GERMANIUM PHOTODETECTOR FOR SILICON WAVEGUIDE - A vertical stack of a first silicon germanium alloy layer, a second epitaxial silicon layer, a second silicon germanium layer, and a germanium layer are formed epitaxially on a top surface of a first epitaxial silicon layer. The second epitaxial silicon layer, the second silicon germanium layer, and the germanium layer are patterned and encapsulated by a dielectric cap portion, a dielectric spacer, and the first silicon germanium layer. The silicon germanium layer is removed between the first and second silicon layers to form a silicon germanium mesa structure that structurally support an overhanging structure comprising a stack of a silicon portion, a silicon germanium alloy portion, a germanium photodetector, and a dielectric cap portion. The germanium photodetector is suspended by the silicon germanium mesa structure and does not abut a silicon waveguide. Germanium diffusion into the silicon waveguide and defect density in the germanium detector are minimized. | 02-18-2010 |
| 20100111470 | LOW-LOSS LOW-CROSSTALK INTEGRATED DIGITAL OPTICAL SWITCH - An optical switch includes a plurality of optical interferometric structures is serially connected between at least one optical input node and two optical output nodes. A primary waveguide directly connects an optical input node and a first optical output node. A complementary waveguide, which is directly connected to a second optical output node, is evanescently coupled with the primary waveguide in a pair of optically coupled sections provided in each optical interferometric structure. Each optical interferometric structure also includes a pair of decoupled sections, which includes a primary decoupled section embedding a portion of the primary waveguide and a complementary decoupled section which includes a portion of the complementary waveguide. The complementary decoupled section is embedded in a phase tuning structure that allows modulation of the phase of the optical signal passing through. The optical switch provides less insertion loss, less crosstalk, and wider bandwidth than prior art optical switches. | 05-06-2010 |
