在光通信中，磁光开关技术是新兴的替代品，也是电光对应物的补充解决方案。它们的主要吸引力包括用于快速动态通信系统所需的光纤和全光电路中的信号路由的低功耗和低成本解决方案。然而，这些设备所需的磁场发生器系统的设计是一个挑战，限制了它们的性能和集成到硅基技术上。在这项工作中，提供了一种新的方法来设计磁场发生器的磁光开关系统。这种实用的磁光干涉仪场生成设计方法突出了针对不同需求和应用的重要权衡。给出了这种设计方法在环形谐振腔磁光开关中的应用实例。光学和电学结果也提供和讨论。
In optical communications, magneto-optic switching technologies are emerging alternatives, as well as complimentary solutions to their electro-optic counterpart. Their main attractions include low-power and low-cost solutions for signal routing used in fiber-based and all-optical circuits needed in fast dynamic communications systems. However, design of the magnetic field generator system required for these devices is a challenge that has limited their performance and integration onto silicon-based technologies. In this work, a novel approach to designing magnetic field generators for magneto-optic switching systems is provided. This practical field generation design method for magneto-optical interferometers highlights important trade-offs specific to different needs and applications. Example usage of this design process is provided in the application of a magneto-optic switch of ring resonator configuration. Optical and electrical results are also provided and discussed.
