In-Line Polymeric Construct For Modulators, Filters, Switches And Other Electro-Optic Devices

US Patent:
5854864, Dec 29, 1998
Filed:
Jul 16, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/683056
Inventors:
Andre Knoesen - Davis CA
Diego Yankelevich - Davis CA
Scott A Hamilton - Davis CA
Nicholas L. Abbott - Davis CA
Richard A. Hill - Campbell CA
Gary Bjorklund - Los Altos Hills CA
Assignee:
The Regents of the University of California - Oakland CA
Optical Networks, Incorporated - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
G02B 626
US Classification:
385 30
Abstract:
A coplanar waveguide polymeric in-line fiber construct (CPW-PILF) formed on an optic half coupler substrate base or D-fiber wherein the surface is polished down through the cladding on the optical fiber so as to form an evanescent coupling region on the surface. Co-planar, spaced-apart electrodes are deposited on the surface with their gap aligned over the coupling region, and an electro-optic (EO) polymeric waveguide is deposited over the electrodes and between the electrode gap. Light transmitted thorough the optical fiber is evanescently coupled to said waveguide and modulated by a signal applied to the electrodes. Alternatively, the waveguide is deposited on the surface of the substrate and the electrodes are deposited over the waveguide.
