Phase Calibration of On-Chip Optical Phased Arrays via Interference Technique

Optical phased arrays (OPAs) are promising in various applications owing to their excellent beam steering performance but suffer from the random initial phases ruining the beam patterns. In this work, an interference-based calibration method to align the random phases for OPA operations is proposed....
