The next generation of optical networks requires the development of optical technology that supports high bandwidth, such as the coherent systems. The coherent detection allows the in-phase and quadrature components of a QPSK signal to be extracted as a result of the interference with a local oscillator. An integrated optics flexible 90° hybrid coupler device based on a single organic-inorganic di-ureasil...
In this work, we report an integrated tunable wave-plate based on thermo-optic (TO) effect on a waveguide patterned by direct UV laser writing on films of organic-inorganic hybrid materials. The temperature of the waveguide was tuned inducing phase retardation between transverse electric and transverse magnetic modes. The TO coefficient of the planar waveguide is (−4.9±0.3)×10−4 ºC−1 at 1550 nm. A...
High-rejection optical filters (~ 20 dB) based on first-order Bragg gratings inscribed in channel waveguides were fabricated using UV-laser direct-write method in sol-gel derived organic-inorganic hybrids, so-called di-ureasils, processed as good-optical quality thin films on oxidized silicon substrates. The gratings were designed to operate at communication wavelengths of 1550 nm demonstrating the...
In this paper, direct UV-laser writing was used to produce channel waveguides and diffraction gratings on thin films of siliceous-based organic-inorganic hybrid materials. The optical quality of the films surface was studied by light scattering measurements. The produced Y-power splitters, optical filters and Fabry-Perot cavities were experimentally characterized for propagation in the near infrared...
