Phase-matching and Nonlinear Optical Processes in Silicon Waveguides.
The efficiency of four-wave-mixing arising from Raman and non-resonant nonlinear susceptibilities in silicon waveguides is studied in the 1.3 - 1.8microm regime. The wavelength conversion efficiency is dominated by the Raman contribution to the nonlinear susceptibility, and high conversion efficiencies can be achieved under the phase-matching condition. In this context, dispersion in silicon wa...
متن کاملOptical pulse compression based on nonlinear silicon waveguides and chirped Bragg gratings
Due to the growing demand for higher bandwidth, employing optical devices instead of electronic devices in data transmission systems has attracted much attention in recent years. Optical switches, modulators and wavelength converters are a few examples of the required optical devices. CMOS compatible fabrication of these devices, leads to much more growing of this technology. Optical pulse comp...
متن کاملPhase-matching for Nonlinear Optical Parametric Processes with Multistep Cascading
We present a brief overview of different methods for simultaneous phase-matching of several parametric optical processes (the so-called multistep cascading) in engineered structures with the modulated second-order nonlinear susceptibility. In particular, we discuss the possibility of double phase-matching in both uniform and non-uniform quasi-phase-matched (QPM) periodic optical superlattices a...

متن کاملFDTD modeling of anisotropic nonlinear optical phenomena in silicon waveguides.
A deep insight into the inherent anisotropic optical properties of silicon is required to improve the performance of silicon-waveguide-based photonic devices. It may also lead to novel device concepts and substantially extend the capabilities of silicon photonics in the future. In this paper, for the first time to the best of our knowledge, we present a three-dimensional finite-difference time-...
