Waveguide-type optical device and manufacturing method therefor

   
   

A technique for electrically mounting a surface-normal optical device or material on a waveguide-type optical device while the characteristics of the mounted device are effectively used is disclosed. The waveguide-type optical device comprises a substrate on which optical waveguides or fibers are provided and a trench is formed; a pair of electrodes which is assigned to each optical waveguide or fiber and is formed from the surface of the substrate to wall surfaces of the trench; and a material or device which is filled or inserted into the trench, and which has an electro-optic effect, thermo-optic effect, light emitting function, light receiving function, or light modulating function. Another type of device comprises a thin and surface-normal active optical device driven by an applied voltage, which is substantially vertically inserted into the trench and is fixed in the trench; and a support member attached to the inserted device.

Una técnica para eléctricamente montar un dispositivo óptico o un material superficie-normal en un gui'a de onda-tipo dispositivo óptico mientras que las características del dispositivo montado se utilizan con eficacia se divulga. El gui'a de onda-tipo dispositivo óptico abarca un substrato en el cual se proporcionen las guías de onda o las fibras ópticas y se forma un foso; un par de electrodos que se asigna a cada guía de onda o fibra óptica y se forma de la superficie del substrato para emparedar las superficies del foso; y un material o un dispositivo que se llena o se inserta en el foso, y que tienen un efecto electróptico, efecto thermo-o'ptico, luz que emite la función, luz que recibe la función, o la función de modulación de la luz. Otro tipo de dispositivo abarca un dispositivo óptico activo fino y superficie-normal conducido por un voltaje aplicado, que se inserta substancialmente verticalmente en el foso y está fijado en el foso; y un miembro de la ayuda unido al dispositivo insertado.
