Abstract
This paper describes the development and investigation of compact waveguide electrooptic modulators using original synthesized chromophore-containing polyimides with covalently attached commercial DR-13 dye. Fully polymer planar electro-optic structures with phase-polarization and amplitude modulators in the form of a Mach–Zehnder interferometer were developed and implemented. The characteristics of the developed modulators at a wavelength of 1.3 μm were investigated, and a half-wave voltage of 24 V was achieved with a 1.3 cm length of the active part of the modulator.
