Abstract:

Results of a GaAs/AlGaAs-based phase modulator designed for an operating wavelength of 780 nm are presented for the first time. The modulator is based on a P-p-i-n-N double heterostructure and features a waveguide with a vertical W-shaped index profile optimized for low propagation losses and a ridge waveguide for lateral indexguiding. A phase modulation efficiency of 12°/V mm is reported. The propagation losses are determined to about 1.4 dB/cm.
