Mach–Zehnder interferometer employing coupled-resonator optical waveguides

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A simple theoretical model of a Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) consisting of two coupled-resonator optical waveguides with different lengths is proposed and experimentally demonstrated at microwave frequencies. Good agreement between theoretical and experimental results is observed. MZIs in planar photonic crystals may become key building blocks in the development of microscale optical integrated devices such as filters, demultiplexers, switches, and modulators.
