MAGNETICALLY ACTIVE SEMICONDUCTOR WAVEGUIDES FOR OPTOELECTRONIC INTEGRATION

摘要

A magneto-optical device includes a waveguide structure that has at least one cladding region and core region. The cladding region and core region comprise semiconductor alloy materials. Either the at least one cladding region or the core region is doped with ferromagnetic materials so as to increase the magneto-optical activity of the device.
