Total internal reflection optical switches by carrier injection in GaAlAs/GaAs

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Semiconductor optical switches are essential devices in achieving compact wideband communication systems, integratively and practically. Total internal reflection (TIR) optical switches using the refractive-index change from the bandfilling effect in InGaAsP/InP, which is about two orders of magnitude greater than that caused by the electro-optic effect, have been reported.1-2
