چکیده
Lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) has been demonstrated as a promising platform for photonic integrated circuits (PICs), thanks to its excellent properties such strong electro-optic effect, low material loss, and wide transparency window. Herein, monolithic PIC high-speed data communication application lithium-niobate-etchless with silicon nitride (Si3N4) loading is proposed demonstrated. The fabricated consists of four racetrack resonator modulators pair four-channel mode (de)multiplexers, which shows high modulation rate 70 Gbps single channel the total throughput reaches up 280 Gbps. To best knowledge, this first demonstration consisting electro-optical (de)multiplexers capacity Si3N4-LNOI hybrid platform, opens new avenues achieving large-scale integration LNOI in future.

Integrated programmable photonic filter on the silicon-on-insulator platform.
We propose and demonstrate a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) on-chip programmable filter based on a four-tap finite impulse response structure. The photonic filter is programmable thanks to amplitude and phase modulation of each tap controlled by thermal heaters. We further demonstrate the tunability of the filter central wavelength, bandwidth and variable passband shape. The tuning range of the cen...

An ideal photonic integrated circuit for nonlinear photonic applications requires high optical nonlinearities and low loss. This work demonstrates a heterogeneous platform by bonding lithium niobate (LN) thin films onto a silicon nitride (Si3N4) waveguide layer on silicon. It not only provides large second- and third-order nonlinear coefficients, but also shows low propaga...
