Study of waveguide crosstalk in silicon photonics integrated circuits
Silicon photonics is going trough a terrific expansion driven by several applications, from chip wiring to integrated sensors and telecommunications. Some applications, e.g. intra and inter chip connections and sensing, require long parallel waveguides for wiring or for connecting grating couplers (GCs) to devices situated in sensing micro-channels. In well packed photonics chips there are ofte...
متن کاملLow loss coupler to interface silicon waveguide and hybrid plasmonic waveguide
A metallic coupler is proposed to interface a silicon on insulator (SOI) waveguide with a narrow hybrid plasmonic waveguide (200× 200 nm). The device operation is investigated and optimized to attain the best tradeoff between the mode confinement and the propagation loss. Calculations reveal that a high confinement and low loss of the energy is achieved from a silicon slab waveguide into the di...
متن کاملPhysics of elliptical reflectors at large reflection and divergence angles I: Their design for nano-photonic integrated circuits and application to low-loss low-crosstalk waveguide crossing
In this work, we study the formulation of beam propagation in an elliptical reflector in nanophotonic integrated circuits (NPICs). We introduce a Gaussian beam mode analysis with Effective Refractive Index Approximation (EIA) applied to planar waveguides. The wavelength-scale waveguides in NPICs lead to large diffraction angle of the input beam and phase aberration in the reflected beam. Howeve...
متن کاملLow-loss waveguide crossing using a multimode interference structure
A novel design technique for low-loss waveguide crossing using the self-imaging properties of multimode interference (MMI) structures is presented. The technique exploits the observation that optical fields with a small 1/e width relative to that of the MMI structure in the image reformed region experience negligible propagation loss even in the absence of lateral guiding mechanism around the r...
متن کاملLow loss GaN waveguides at the visible spectral wavelengths for integrated photonics applications.
We perform comprehensive studies on the fundamental loss mechanisms in III-nitride waveguides in the visible spectral region. Theoretical analysis shows that free carrier loss dominates for GaN under low photon power injection. When optical power increases, the two photon absorption loss becomes important and eventually dominates when photon energy above half-bandgap of GaN. When the dimensions...
