The fiber-to-waveguide coupler is based on a diluted waveguide,which is composed of ten periods of undoped 120nm InP/80nm InGaAsP (1.05μm bandgap) multiple layers. Using the semi-vectorial three dimensional beam propagation method (BPM) with the central difference scheme,the coupling efficiency of fiber-to-waveguide under different conditions is simulated and studied,and the optimized conditions for fiber-to-waveguide coupling are obtained. For TE-like and TM-like modes,the calculated maximum coupling efficiency is higher than 94% and 92% ,respectively. The calculated polarization dependence is less than 0. ldB,showing good polarization independence.展开更多

The photoconductors were based on In As0.05Sb0.95 and In As0.09Sb0.91 thick epilayers grown on In As substrates by melt epitaxy(ME). Ge immersion lenses were set on the photoconductors. The cutoff wavelength of In As0.09Sb0.91 detectors is obviously extended to 11.5 μm, and that of In As0.05Sb0.95 detectors is 8.3 μm. At room temperature, the peak detectivity of Dλp* at wavelength of 6.8 μm and modulation frequency of 1 200 Hz is 1.08×109 cm·Hz1/2·W-1 for In As0.09Sb0.91 photoconductors, the detectivity D* at wavelength of 9 μm is 7.56×108 cm·Hz1/2·W-1, and that at 11 μm is 3.92×108 cm·Hz1/2·W-1. The detectivity of In As0.09Sb0.91 detectors at the wavelengths longer than 9 μm is about one order of magnitude higher than that of In As0.05Sb0.95 detectors, which rises from the increase of arsenic(As) composition in In As0.09Sb0.91 materials.展开更多
