Abstract

The invention relates to an optical element for the field of optical fiber sensing or optical fiber communication, in particular to a multifunctional integrated optical modulator for integrating a coupler of an inclined passing arm in a single Y-shaped waveguide as well as a production method of the modulator. The multifunctional integrated optical modulator comprises a crystal substrate, a Y-shaped waveguide, an inclined passing arm waveguide and a waveguide electrode, wherein the Y-shaped waveguide and the inclined passing arm waveguide form an integrated coupler with a special structure. With the structure, the multifunctional integrated optical modulator can solve the problems of not high signal-noise ratio and extra 3dB which is 50 percent of light wave loss, wide wavelength band and the like in the prior art. In addition, the invention has the advantages of insensitive temperature, wide wavelength band, larger tolerance of production process and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a component used in the field of optical fiber sensing or optical fiber communication, in particular to an integrated optical multifunctional modulator using a coupler integrating a diagonal arm waveguide in a single Y-shaped waveguide, and the modulator manufacturing method. Background technique [0002] Optical modulators are often used in the field of optical fiber sensing or optical fiber communication. For the application of fiber optic gyro sensors, the optical path of optical modulators currently uses a single Y-shaped waveguide structure. A 2×2 fiber optic coupler is set at the input end of the Y-shaped waveguide structure to realize the function of separating input and output, see figure 1 ; The optical path of the optical modulator also often adopts a double Y-shaped waveguide structure, the second Y-shaped waveguide structure is used for power splitting, and the first Y-shaped waveguide structure is coupled with the...
