Optical Switching Devices Including Phase Transition Materials |
摘要 |
An optical switching device includes a substrate having an optical waveguide thereon, and a phase transition pattern in or on a portion of the optical waveguide. The phase transition pattern includes a material that is configured to be switched between insulating and conductive states responsive to a stimulus. At least one conductive element on the substrate directly contacts the phase transition pattern to provide the stimulus to the phase transition pattern. Related fabrication methods are also discussed. |

1. An optical switching device comprising:
a substrate comprising a trench therein; a lower cladding layer comprising an insulating material in the trench; an optical waveguide on the lower cladding layer; a phase transition pattern buried within a part of the optical waveguide and having a same thickness as a thickness of the optical waveguide; first and second slabs at sides of the phase transition pattern and electrically connected to the phase transition pattern; and an upper cladding layer on the substrate and the lower cladding layer and on the optical waveguide, the phase transition pattern, and the first and second slabs. |
