| Abstract: |
| Optical phased array technology can avoid the beam tilting and broadening caused by electrical phase shifters in the conventional phased array radar. Delay line chip and beamforming based on the integrated photonic technique are widely studied. The low-loss MZI step delay line chip is fabricated, with 6.4 ps delay step, 5 bits, 198.4 ps maximum delay and 0.1 dB/cm waveguide loss. The designed chip is also packaged to be the module, which performs 100 μs switching speed, ±4.5 dB electric amplitude consistency, ±23° phase consistency, ±1.5 dB optical amplitude consistency and -0.6~+2.0 ps time delay error under 1~20 GHz operatingfrequency range. The optical beamforming prototype with 8 arrays is fabricated to realize the beam scanning from -35° to +35° and demonstrate the beamforming technique based on low-loss SiN delay line chip. |
