Abstract
The temperature dependence of the refractive index of InP in the wavelength range from 1.2 to 1.6 μm has been determined. The method is based on the measurement of the transmission wavelengths of a n−/n+‐InP optical demultiplexer as a function of device temperature. The refractive index of InP is found to depend linearly on temperature with a temperature coefficient between 2.3 and 1.9×10−4/K. The measured absolute value and the dispersion of the refractive index of InP are in agreement with data from the literature.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
