Abstract
As a novel application of silicon-based integrated optics, results fro m a proposed compact Mach-Zehnder interferometer are presented. The de position of a ZnO thin-film transducer upon the reference arm of the i nterferometer transforms this optically passive device into a device w ith active sinusoidal phase modulation.
