文摘

An optical directional coupler (ODC)-based hybrid plasmonic waveguide is designed and demonstrated with a power splitting mechanism that can be tuned by applying an external electric field. The tuning mechanism takes the advantage of electro-optic properties of the embedded polymer layer. The ODC operates under 1550 nm telecommunication wavelength. A finite element method with a perfect matching layer, absorbing boundary condition, is taken up to simulate and analyze the ODC.
