Abstract
One embodiment of the present disclosure provides an optical device which includes a waveguide and a light modulator. The light modulator includes a phase-change material and is in direct contact with an outer surface of the waveguide. The optical device also includes a thermal conducting member. The thermal conducting member is positioned on the light modulating member. The optical device further includes a heating member. The heating member is placed on the thermal conducting member and is distant away from the light modulator and the waveguide. The heat produced from the heating member is transferred to the light modulator through the thermal conducting member thereby inducing a phase transition of the light modulator.
