摘要
By using the coupled mode theory. electro-optic modulation theory, conformal transforming method, image method and the proposed transfer matrix technique, novel expressions for the both cases of the low switching frequency and the ultra-high switching frequency are presented for analyzing the transmission powers, rise time, fall time, switching time and switching frequency of the polymer directional coupler electro-optic switches. Simulation results of an application based on the technique show that, the switching voltage and coupling length are about 1.457 V and 4.374 mm, respectively, and the switching time and cutoff switching frequency are about 32.8 ps and 114.7 CHz, respectively, for the designed switch.
