Abstract

On-chip electro-optic modulation is essential to realize complex on-chip optical signal processing. Recent developments in thin-film ferroelectric oxide for high-speed electro-optical modulators have gained considerable interest in understanding and correlating the material property with the electro-optic response. Particularly, the effect of thin film, domain orientation, and polling on the electro-optic response is not well understood. In this article, we present the effect of ferroelectric domains of thin-film Barium Titanate on the electro-optic response in a waveguide configuration. We also show the impact of drive electrode orientation with respect to the in-plane polarization angle in a multi-domain structure. Our theoretical findings corroborate the experimental observations in the literature, which substantiate the theoretical framework.
