Abstract: A conductive hermetically sealed monolithic photonic integrated circuit with optical components and multiple optical and electrical inputs/outputs includes a semiconductor/metal base having sensitive components with multiple optical and electrical inputs, multiple optical and electrical outputs, and/or multiple optical and electrical inputs and outputs. An electrically conductive basic lid includes at least two of metal, dielectric and semiconductor materials combined to form an electrically conductive protective circuit. The conductive basic lid is sealed to the semiconductor/metal base by metallization so as to form a chamber including the sensitive components and hermetically sealing the chamber and the sensitive component from the ambient in a basic hermetic capsule and the electrically conductive protective circuit is formed and connected to protect the sensitive components from external electrical interference.

Abstract: A monolithic PIC including a monolithic laser formed in/on a platform and a polymer modulator monolithically built onto the platform and optically coupled to the laser. The modulator includes a first cladding layer, a passive core region with a surface abutting a surface of the first cladding layer, the core region extending to define an input and an output for the modulator. A shaped electro-optic polymer active component has a surface abutting a surface of a central portion of the core region. The active component is polled to align dipoles and promote modulation of light and has a length that extends only within a modulation area defined by modulation electrodes. A second cladding layer encloses the active component and is designed to produce adiabatic transition of light waves traveling in the core region into the active component to travel the length thereof and return to the core region.

Abstract: A polymer waveguide/modulator including a lower cladding layer, a polymer core, an upper cladding layer, a first protection/barrier layer sandwiched between the lower cladding layer and the core, and a second protection/barrier layer sandwiched between the core and the upper cladding layer. The protection/barrier layers designed to protect the cladding layers and the core from solvents and gases and to prevent current leakage between the cladding layers and the core. The first protection/barrier layer is optically transparent and designed with a refractive index less than, greater than, or the same as the refractive index of the core and approximately equal to the refractive index of the lower cladding layer. The second protection/barrier layer is optically transparent and designed with a refractive index less than, greater than, or the same as the refractive index of the core and approximately equal to the refractive index of the upper cladding layer.

Abstract: A thin film polymer device including a waveguide core surrounded by dielectric material positioned on a platform. The core has a passive input portion and a passive output portion joined by a necked down active portion. A layer of EO polymer material positioned on the dielectric material overlying the active portion of the core and the core, the EO polymer, and the dielectric material all having refractive indices with the refractive index of the EO polymer being higher than the refractive index of the dielectric material. Light progressing through the core from the passive input portion to the passive output portion transitions to the layer of EO polymer material as it enters the necked down active portion and transitions back to the core as it leaves the necked down active portion.
