摘要
Electrical switching of fused vertical couplers (FVCs) is demonstrated. For a 3.5mm long coupler, complete switching is observed at 3V reverse bias. This low voltage is attributed to excess current induced internal heating and thr thermo-optic effect. By changing the electrode design and reducing the excess current, a 6.9mm long NC with 12V switching voltage is demonstrated.
