Standing-wave nonlinear optics in an integrated semiconductor microcavity.
We present a concept of standing-wave optical frequency conversion in dispersive microcavities theoretically and experimentally, allowing efficient ultracompact nonlinear photonics. We developed a time-dependent model, incorporating the dispersion into the structure of the spatial cavity modes, where the conversion efficiency is enhanced by the optimization of a nonlinear cavity mode overlap. W...
متن کاملModeling of grating assisted standing wave microresonators for filter applications in integrated optics
A wide, multimode segment of a dielectric optical waveguide, enclosed by Bragg reflectors and evanescently coupled to adjacent port waveguides, can constitute the cavity in an integrated optical microresonator. It turns out that the device can be described adequately in terms of an approximate coupled mode theory model which involves only a few guided modes as basis fields. By reasoning along t...
متن کاملTime-reversed wave mixing in nonlinear optics
Time-reversal symmetry is important to optics. Optical processes can run in a forward or backward direction through time when such symmetry is preserved. In linear optics, a time-reversed process of laser emission can enable total absorption of coherent light fields inside an optical cavity of loss by time-reversing the original gain medium. Nonlinearity, however, can often destroy such symmetr...
متن کاملIntegrated Nonlinear Optics in Silicon Nitride Waveguides
Integrated optics platforms offer the possibility to implement compact photonic devices for nonlinear optics applications. Modern nanofabrication facilities allow the fabrication of sub-micron-sized waveguide geometries that confine light to reach very high optical intensities. These intensities enable efficient nonlinear processes that are further enhanced by using materials with high nonlinea...
متن کاملNonlinear Optics in III-V Quaternary Semiconductor Waveguides
The fundamental limits of electronic systems in communication networks motivated scholars to think of an alternative approach to overcome problems such as demand for wider bandwidths and heat dissipation. All-optical signal processing is demonstrated as a potential solution. A major improvement in cost and speed of networking systems is expected through replacing microelectronics by photonic ch...
