Enhanced efficiency thermo-optic phase-shifter by using multi-mode-interference device
We demonstrate a method for power reduction in thermo-optic based Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) by using the multimode region of a 2x2 Multi-Mode-Interferometer (MMI) as the modulation region. The light is circulated through the same multimode region twice and therefore utilizes the already pres...
