Tailorable stimulated Brillouin scattering in nanoscale silicon waveguides
Nanoscale modal confinement is known to radically enhance the effect of intrinsic Kerr and Raman nonlinearities within nanophotonic silicon waveguides. By contrast, stimulated Brillouin-scattering nonlinearities, which involve coherent coupling between guided photon and phonon modes, are stifled in conventional nanophotonics, preventing the realization of a host of Brillouin-based signal-proces...
متن کاملAnisotropic Strain-like Line Broadening Due to Composition Variations
The line-broadening of a sample of a powder of non-stoichiometric hexagonal ε-iron nitride with the average composition FeN0.433 was analysed by X-ray diffraction. A nearly Gaussian purely strain-like broadening was observed. The broadening is strongly orientation dependent. For each direction of the diffraction vector relative to the crystallographic axes the width of the reflections varies pr...
متن کاملEliminating the broadening by finite aperture in Brillouin spectroscopy.
We present a new optical arrangement which allows to avoid the broadening by finite aperture in Brillouin spectroscopy. In this system, all the rays scattered at the same angle by the whole scattering volume are collected on a single pixel of the area detector. This allows to use large collection angles, increasing the luminosity without lowering the accuracy of the frequency-shift and linewidt...
متن کاملZero-broadening measurement in Brillouin based slow-light delays.
A novel method for the achievement of zero-broadening in a SBS based slow-light system is discussed in theory and demonstrated experimentally. The system is realized just with a single broadened Brillouin gain. It is shown, that if the gain bandwidth is much broader than the initial pulse width, the output pulse width decreases with increasing pump power. A compression of approximately 90 % of ...
متن کاملStimulated Brillouin scattering in nanoscale silicon step-index waveguides: a general framework of selection rules and calculating SBS gain.
We develop a general framework of evaluating the Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) gain coefficient in optical waveguides via the overlap integral between optical and elastic eigen-modes. This full-vectorial formulation of SBS coupling rigorously accounts for the effects of both radiation pressure and electrostriction within micro- and nano-scale waveguides. We show that both contributions ...
