Performance of electro-optical plasmonic ring resonators at telecom wavelengths
2012
International audience; In this work we report on the characteristics of an electro-optical dielectric-loaded surface plasmon polariton waveguide ring resonator. By doping the dielectric host matrix with an electro-optical material and designing an appropriate set of planar electrodes, we measured a 16% relative change of transmission upon application of a controlled electric field. We have analyzed the temporal response of the device and conclude that electrostriction of the host matrix is playing a dominating role in the transmission response.
All-optical and electro-optical active plasmonic telecom components
2011
Active plasmonics is an attractive emerging field in which the ability to control the surface plasmon polariton (SPP) propagation finds many applications such as realization of fully functional integrated photonic circuitry. We demonstrate both numerically and experimentally switching of the SPP transmission based on two different approaches namely the all-optical and electro-optical at telecom wavelengths. The plasmonic component consists of a compact and efficient SPP switch utilizing highly sensitive ring resonator which has high sensitivity to the refractive index changes. Fabrication was done via e-beam lithography utilizing advanced proximity corrections. The compenents were character…
