Rib PN doped cross_section.

Parameters:
  • width – width of the ridge in um.

  • layer – ridge layer.

  • layer_slab – slab layer.

  • gap_low_doping – from waveguide center to low doping. Only used for PIN.

  • gap_medium_doping – from waveguide center to medium doping. None removes it.

  • gap_high_doping – from center to high doping. None removes it.

  • offset_low_doping – from center to junction center.

  • width_doping – in um.

  • width_slab – in um.

  • layer_p – p doping layer.

  • layer_pp – p+ doping layer.

  • layer_ppp – p++ doping layer.

  • layer_n – n doping layer.

  • layer_np – n+ doping layer.

  • layer_npp – n++ doping layer.

  • layer_via – via layer.

  • width_via – via width in um.

  • layer_metal – metal layer.

  • width_metal – metal width in um.

  • port_names – input and output port names.

  • sections – optional list of sections.

  • cladding_layers – optional list of cladding layers.

  • cladding_offsets – optional list of cladding offsets.

  • cladding_simplify – Optional Tolerance value for the simplification algorithm. All points that can be removed without changing the resulting polygon by more than the value listed here will be removed.

  • slab_inset – slab inset in um.

  • kwargs – cross_section settings.
