Photonic bandgaps in patterned waveguides of silicon-rich silicon dioxide
We describe waveguides of photoluminescent silicon-rich silicon dioxide, which have been patterned by triangular two-dimensional ~2D! photonic crystals to give higher-order photonic bandgaps occurring within the luminescence band of the core material. Photonic crystal modification of the photoluminescence spectrum allows identification of angle-tuned photonic bandgaps, in close agreement with 2...
متن کاملGiant birefringence in multi-slotted silicon nanophotonic waveguides.
We demonstrate record giant birefringence, nearly twice as large as has previously been achieved (Delta n(group) = 1.5 over more than 60 nm of bandwidth near lambda= 1550 nm) using a multi-slotted silicon nanophotonic waveguide. The birefringence is optimized by the use of materials with high refractive index contrast to create a compact single-mode waveguide, and the etching of deeply sub-wave...
متن کاملBirefringence of GaNÕAlGaN optical waveguides
We have experimentally studied the birefringence of wurtzite GaN grown on a sapphire substrate. The measurements were done with single-mode GaN/AlGaN planar optical waveguides on c-plane grown heterostructure films. The refractive indices were found to be different for signal optical field perpendicular or parallel to the crystal c axis (n'Þn i). More importantly, we found an approximately 10% ...
متن کاملThermal and Kerr nonlinear properties of plasma-deposited silicon nitride/ silicon dioxide waveguides.
We introduce and present experimental evaluations of loss and nonlinear optical response in a waveguide and an optical resonator, both implemented with a silicon nitride/ silicon dioxide material platform prepared by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition with dual frequency reactors that significantly reduce the stress and the consequent loss of the devices. We measure a relatively small lo...
متن کاملIon-exchanged glass waveguides with low birefringence for a broad range of waveguide widths.
Optical communications networks require integrated photonic components with negligible polarization dependence, which typically means that the waveguides must feature very low birefringence. Recent studies have shown that waveguides with low birefringence can be obtained, e.g., by use of silica-on-silicon waveguides or buried ion-exchanged glass waveguides. However, many integrated photonic cir...
