Investigation of FWM in dispersion-engineered GaInP photonic crystal waveguides
We report on the investigation of four-wave mixing (FWM) in a long (1.3 mm) dispersion-engineered Gallium Indium Phosphide (GaInP) photonic crystal (PhC) waveguide. A comparison with a non-engineered design is made with respect to measured FWM efficiency maps. A striking different response is observed, in terms of dependence on the pump wavelength and the spectral detuning. The benefits and the...
متن کاملMode dispersion in biperiodic photonic crystal waveguides
We propose and analyze biperiodic photonic crystal waveguides, where there are two sets of discrete translational symmetry along the propagation direction of the photonic crystal waveguides. We present a general method based on a spatial Fourier transform for the calculation of mode dispersion in such biperiodic waveguides. We demonstrate that by modifying the periodicity of only two rows of ai...
متن کاملPhotonic Crystal Waveguides for Parametric Down-conversion
Photonic crystals create dramatic new possibilities for nonlinear optics. Line defects are shown to support modes suitable for the production of pairs of photons by the material’s second order nonlinearity even if the phase-matching conditions cannot be satisfied in the bulk. These structures offer the flexibility to achieve specific dispersion characteristics and potentially very high brightne...
متن کاملPhase-sensitive amplification in silicon photonic crystal waveguides.
We experimentally demonstrate phase-sensitive amplification in a silicon photonic crystal waveguide based on pump-degenerate four-wave mixing. An 11 dB phase-extinction ratio is obtained in a record compact 196 μm nanophotonic device due to broadband slow light, in spite of the presence of two-photon absorption and free carriers. Numerical calculations show good agreement with the experimental ...
متن کاملDispersion-controlled slow light in photonic crystal waveguides
Slow light with a markedly low group velocity is a promising solution for optical buffering and advanced time-domain optical signal processing. It is also anticipated to enhance linear and nonlinear effects and so miniaturize functional photonic devices because slow light compresses optical energy in space. Photonic crystal waveguide devices generate on-chip slow light at room temperature with ...
