Abstract

In this paper, numerical analysis has been done to calculate the modal, phase and loss characteristics of a silicon rib PN phase shifter for three samples with different junction profiles. Each sample has been compared based on performance characteristics to show that a graded junction gives better performance compared to an abrupt junction phase shifter.
