Résumé
In this paper the authors present an hybrid approach for the analysis of the optical filtering function in corrugated waveguide filters with a high index modulation. This approach is based on the hybridization of the extended couple mode theory (CMT) with the transfer matrix approach. The authors chose to treat the case of high index corrugation because in this case the theory elaborated before is not rigorously applicable. The proposed approach allows the calculation of the reflection coefficient and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) for any index modulation scheme. The hybridization of both methods mentioned above explains the impact and effects of opto-geometric parameters on the reflection coefficient and the bandwidth at mid-height. The theoretical results are verified by experimental measurements realized on Ti:LiNbO3 waveguides with a high index modulation experimentally implemented by engraving using Focused Ion Beam (FIB) process.
