Low Power Consumption VOA Array With Air Trenches and Curved Waveguide
The paper introduces a 24-channel air-trench isolated Silica-based VOA array. The air trenches thermally insulate the VOAs with etched-free waveguide technologies. Reactive ion etching and wet etching were used at different channel locations to suppress thermal crosstalk and reduce power consumption...
