Compact all-fiber thermo-optic modulator based on a Michelson interferometer coated with NaNdF4 nanoparticles

Yutao Bo et al.

Summary: The study presents an all-fiber thermo-optic modulator based on a side-polished twin-core fiber Michelson interferometer coated with NaNdF4 nanoparticles for optical switching. The device shows a significant modulation phase shift near the wavelength of 1260 nm and fast rise (fall) times of 152 (50) ms. With its compact structure and strong robustness, the proposed device has great potential for applications in optical modulators.

High-Performance Graphene-on-Silicon Nitride All-Optical Switch Based on a Mach-Zehnder Interferometer

Ciyuan Qiu et al.

Summary: A high-performance graphene-on-silicon nitride all-optical switch based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer is proposed and experimentally demonstrated, which utilizes the heat generated by graphene absorbing pump light to change the refractive index of the Si3N4 waveguide. The all-optical switch exhibits an extinction ratio of 11 dB and a tuning efficiency of 0.00917 pi/mW, with fast rise and fall time constants of 571 ns and 1.29 μs, respectively.
