Abstract

In this paper, we performed theoretical simulation for directional coupler using BPM program. Simulation results shored that the optimum optical waveguide refractive index between the guides were 3$\mu\textrm{m}$. Using the parameters of n$_1$=2.25, n$_2$=2.25, n$_3$=2.2, gap=3$\mu\textrm{m}$, W= 30$\mu\textrm{m}$, $\Delta$z=0.l$\mu\textrm{m}$, λ=1.5$\mu\textrm{m}$, we decided other design parameters. When we applied 40[V] in the optimum condition of the directional coupling effect, we concluded the refractive index variation of 0.001.
