Phase-only Beam Optimization for GaAs Optical Waveguide Phase Array
Optical waveguide phased arrays have highlighted advantages than other electro-optical material optical arrays in scanning angle,response speed etc.For diffraction fields of uniform waveguide have strong side-lobes,which have influence on scanning performance of phased arrays.So side-lobes compression is one of the main issues for optical waveguide phased array device development.Based on photoelectric effect,the relations of voltage and phase are analysised.Phase-only array beam control using a Genetic Algorithm,an efficiency-optimized scheme,for uniform optical waveguide array with process errors is proposed.Phase distributions are arranged as randomly increasing distributions and random distributions.The results show phase-only optical waveguide arrays control,without the reconstruction of devices,has fine side-lobes compression effects with-9.89dB side-lobes intensity ratio.So the performance of scanning beams gets well improved.
