  • Publication number: 20220334418
    Abstract: The invention relates to the field of photonic integrated circuits and provides an optical modulator and a photonic integrated system, which can suppress phase deviation caused by carrier diffusion. The optical modulator includes at least one phase shifter including a waveguide channel for transmitting optical signal, and a P-type doped region and a N-type doped region located on opposite sides of the waveguide channel. In the waveguide channel, an undoped intrinsic region is located between the P-type doped region and the N-type doped region. At least one end of the intrinsic region or close to the at least one end is provided with a blocking structure for blocking the diffusion of carriers from the intrinsic region along the waveguide propagation direction, so that the phase deviation caused by the diffusion of carriers can be suppressed, and the electrical crosstalk between adjacent phase shifters can be suppressed, thereby avoiding modulation signal distortion caused by the electrical crosstalk.
