摘要
In this paper, the performance of a germanium-doped silicon optical phase shifter with vertical PN junction has been investigated. The proposed phase shifter is simulated using a process simulation tool, and 2D carrier distribution has been used to calculate the phase shifter performance metrics. The designed phase shifter is integrated into a Mach-Zehnder interferometer structure, and the transfer characteristics are plotted. The proposed phase shifter has a phase shift of similar to 141 degrees/mm, V pi L pi of similar to 0.64 V.cm, insertion loss of similar to 1.23 dB, and 3 dB bandwidth of similar to 37 GHz at 5 V reverse bias.
