Abstract
An optical waveguide device includes a substrate; a lower cladding disposed on the substrate; a rib waveguide including a slab disposed on the lower cladding and a single rib disposed on the slab contiguous to the slab; and an upper cladding disposed on the rib waveguide. The rib waveguide includes a first doped region having a first electric conductivity exhibiting a P-type electric conductivity across the rib and the slab and a second doped region being contiguous to the first doped region and having a second electric conductivity exhibiting an N-type electric conductivity across the rib and the slab.
