The effects of the finite depth, conical shape, trapezoidal shape and hybrid shape of holes are theoretically analyzed. Due to the difficulty of milling high aspect-ratio cylindrical holes in lithium niobate （LiNbO3 ）, a compromised solution is proposed to improve the overlap between shallow holes and the waveguide mode, and useful transmission spectra with strong contrast and sharp band edges are achieved.展开更多
We report the near-stoichiometric Ti：LiNbO3 strip waveguides fabricated by vapour transport equilibration （VTE） at 1060~^{／circ}C for 12 h and co-diffusion of 4--8~／mu m wide, 115-nm thick Ti-strips.

Optical studies show that these waveguides are monomode at 1.5~／mu m and have losses of 1.3 and 1.1~dB/cm for the TM and TE modes, respectively. In the waveguide width/depth direction, the mode field follows a Gauss/Hermite--Gauss profile. A secondary ion mass spectrometry study reveals that the Ti profile follows a sum of two error functions along the width direction and a complementary error function in the depth direction. Micro-Raman analysis shows that the Li-composition in the depth direction also follows a complementary error function. The mean Li/Nb ratio in the waveguide layer is about 0.98. The inhomogeneous Li-composition profile results in a varied substrate index in the guiding layer, and the refractive index profile in the guiding layer is given.展开更多

This paper reports the research results on the measurement of frequency shift characteristics of Mach-Zehnder electro-optic intensity modulator. Two measurement methods of frequency shift characteristics for high and low frequency modulations are studied in theory and experiment and demonstrate different results. The realization of a multi-wavelength optical source based on Mach-Zehnder electro-optic intensity modulator has been introduced. The technique to reach the maximum intensity for interesting shift frequency, particularly for heterodyne detection of Brillouin distributed optical fiber sensing, has been given.展开更多

Structure of Gd 2O 3 films annealed at different temperature was investigated by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Oriented growth of (400) face of Gd 2O 3 has been observed when the films were deposited on amorphous substrate. The refractive index and thickness of films were determined by m-lines spectroscopy. The laser beam (λ=632.8 nm) was coupled into the film by a prism coupler and the propagation length is about 3.5 cm. Luminescence properties of europium ions doped films were measured by waveguide fluorescence spectroscopy, which shows disordered environment for Eu 3+ at 400 ℃.展开更多

The crystalline structure was evaluated by X-ray diffraction. Waveguide property was investigated by using prism coupling technique and optical transmittance measurement. The optical nonlinearities of the film were measured by the top-hat Z-scan techniques and a large positive nonlinear refractive index, nonlinear refractive coefficient and two-photon absorption coefficient were determined to be 3.84×10^7 esu, 0.7523 cm^2/GW and 4.81×10^4 cm/GW, respectively. These results reveal that the BNT film may be a kind of new multifunctional materials.展开更多
