Optical Switch based on Microring Resonators and Phase Change Materials

Abstract

By exploiting the high contrast in the optical properties of the phase change material Ge2Sb2Te5 between its amorphous and its crystalline stable phases (ncryst−namor=2.5 and kcryst−kamor=1 at 1.55 μm) [1] a thin film (20 nm) of this material deposited on top of a microring resonator can be used to modify its losses and effective refractive index, thus changing the position and shape of the resonances in the transmission spectrum.
