  • Patent number: 11599005
    Abstract: A multi-section optical modulator and related method are disclosed wherein two waveguide arms traverse a plurality of successive modulating sections. A differential drive signal is applied separately to each waveguide arm of each modulating sections in synchronism with the transmission of light along the waveguide arms, effecting a dual differential driving of each section. By suitably selecting the number of modulating sections and the section length, a high modulation bandwidth and a high modulation efficiency may be achieved simultaneously for a given peak-to-peak voltage swing of the drive signal.

  • Patent number: 10873173
    Abstract: In conventional hybrid lasers large back refection may lead to a degradation of relative intensity noise (RIN), linewidth broadening, mode hopping, etc. To solve the aforementioned problem a hybrid laser includes a mode converter for converting a higher-back-reflection mode of the light to a mode providing less back reflection to the gain chip. The mode converter may comprise a polarization rotator, a waveguide converter, or high-order mode converter. A routing waveguide may be provided including a phase shifter, e.g. a doped waveguide, for adjusting a cavity length of the laser cavity.
