Abstract
Waveguide and grating structures offer a potential basis for novel far-infrared light (8-12 μm) integrated optics, as well as for replacing existing bulk infrared optical systems with guided-wave alternatives1,2. At these wavelengths residual waveguide losses are expected to be very small. Integration concepts can be applied with relaxed dimensional tolerances at these longer wavelengths. In this paper a new application of a resonant semiconductor layer integrated in a far-infrared waveguide modulator will be explained and experimental backing will be given.
