摘 要:An optical phased array(OPA)is a promising non-mechanical technique for beam steering in solid-state light detection and ranging *** performance of the OPA largely depends on the phase shifter,which afects power consumption,insertion loss,modulation speed,and ***,for a thermo-optic phase shifter,achieving good performance in all aspects is challenging due to trade-ofs among these *** this work,we propose and demonstrate two types of energy-efcient optical phase shifters that overcome these trade-ofs and achieve a well-balanced performance in all ***,the proposed round-spiral phase shifter is robust in fabrication and fully compatible with deep ultraviolet(DUV)processes,making it an ideal building block for large-scale photonic integrated circuits(PICs).Using the high-performance phase shifter,we propose a periodic OPA with low power consumption,whose maximum electric power consumption within the feld of view is only 0.33 ***,we designed Gaussian power distribution in both the azimuthal(ψ)and polar(θ)directions and experimentally achieved a large sidelobe suppression ratio of 15.1 and 25 dB,respectively.
