Mathew J. Zablocki, Ahmed Sharkawy, Ozgenc Ebil, Shouyuan Shi, and Dennis Prather
In this paper, we present a compact photonic crystal directional coupler in a silicon on insulator platform electro-optically switched at 150 kHz with a switching time of 620 ns under a low voltage operation of 2.9 V. The switch design utilizes a coupled photonic crystal structure designed to operat ... [Appl. Phys. Lett. 96, 081110 (2010)] published Thu Feb 25, 2010.
