Integrated Mach–Zehnder Interferometer Based on Liquid Crystal Evanescent Field Tuning

In this work, the performance of a Mach−Zehnder interferometer manufactured in silicon nitride with a liquid crystal cladding is studied. The device consists of two multi-mode interference couplers linked by two rectangular waveguides, the cladding of one of which is a liquid crystal. The...
