Efficient InGaAsP/InP multiple quantum well optical phase modulator for the 1.5-1.55μm fiber band

We report an InGaAsP/InP MQW phase modulator operating over the entire 1.55μm fiber band with high phase modulation efficiency and low loss modulation. The spectral dependence of the electro-refraction in a MQW structure is measured for the first time.

Electro-optic modulation of 1.5μm light in an active InGaAsP/InP quantum well waveguide

We report an InGaAsP/InP phase modulator operating in the 1.5μm wavelength band. Phase modulation of 7.5°/mA and 1.7°/mA of injected current have been measured for TE and TM polarised light respectively at a signal wavelength of 1.52 μm.

Demonstration of a compact InGaAsP active crosspoint switch operating at 1.5 μm using novel reflective y-coupler components

An extremely compact active optoelectronic crosspoint switch, having overall dimensions of 400 μm×200 μm, is reported. The device provides unity facet-to-facet gain for both bar and cross state operation for TE or TM input signals.

Theoretical and numerical investigation of SiC JFET and MOSFET at 6.5 kV

This paper presents a preliminary theoretical and numerical investigation of 4H-SiC JFET and MOSFET at 6.5 kV. To improve the on-state/breakdown performance of the JFET, buried layers in conjunction with a highly doped buffer layer have been used. Trench technology has been employed for the MOSFET. The devices were simulated and optimized using MEDICI[I] simulator. From the comparison between the two devices, it turns out that the JFET offers a better on-state/breakdown trade-off, while the trench MOSFET has the advantage of MOS-control.
