Phase Modulator: A light beam signal (pulse) undergoes a phase change as it transfers an electro-optic medium of length ‘L’ Change in index of refraction ------------- (1) In linear electro-optic medium …………………(2) E= Electric field of the RF driver; E=V/d, V=voltage and d thickness of the layer. r= linear electro-optic coefficient n= index
Figure compares linear and quadratic variation Dn as a funciton of field. MQWs have quadratic electro-refractive effect. Figure shows a Fabry-Perot Cavity which comprises of MQWs whose index can be tuned (Dn) as a funciton of field.
Mach-Zehnder Modulator Here an optical beam is split into two using a Y-junction or a 3dB coupler. The two equal beams having ½ Iin optical power. If one of the beam undergoes a phase change , and subsequently recombine. The output Io is related as Mach-Zehnder Modulator comprises of two waveguides which are fed by one common source at the input (left side). When the phase shift is 180, the out put is zero. Hence, the applied RF voltage across the waveguide modulates the input light.

Nanowire Fabrication (Notes L7 p. 128) Synthesis: • Nanowires using supersaturated semiconductor-gold alloys in vapor phase • Nanotubes: (a) carbon nanotubes (b) SiC and other non-carbon nanotubes • Quantum dots using chemical synthesis from liquid or vapor phase. Etching: Thin quantum well epitaxial layers are grown in appropriate device structure, in–plane etching using nanolithographic techniques. Reactive ion etching, ion milling are two commonly used etching techniques. Lithography • Imersion lithography using 193 nm Excimer laser • Extreme Ultra Violet (EUV) • 13.5 nm • Sn Plasma. 35 Mw • Xe ASML (Wilton, CT) and Nanotech. Albany
