Abstract
An optical phase shift circuit can include: a first Mach Zehnder lattice and a second Mach Zehnder lattice. Each Mach Zehnder lattice can have a first waveguide and a second waveguide, with a set of active phase shifters disposed along one of the waveguides and a plurality of directional coupler regions disposed along both waveguides between the active phase shifters. A first passive phase shifter can be coupled between one output path of the first Mach Zehnder lattice and one input path of the second Mach Zehnder lattice, and a second passive phase shifter can be coupled between the other output path of the first Mach Zehnder lattice and the other input path of the second Mach Zehnder lattice. Optical phase shift circuits of this kind can be used to implement phase shifters in a Generalized Mach Zehnder interferometer.
