چکیده
Silicon nitride photonics is on the rise owing to the broadband nature of the material, allowing applications of biophotonics, tele/datacom, optical signal processing and sensing, from visible, through near to mid-infrared wavelengths. In this paper, a review of the state of the art of silicon nitride strip waveguide platforms is provided, alongside the experimental results on the development of a versatile 300 nm guiding film height silicon nitride platform.

We demonstrate second order optical nonlinearity in a silicon architecture through heterogeneous integration of single-crystalline gallium nitride (GaN) on silicon (100) substrates. By engineering GaN microrings for dual resonance around 1560 nm and 780 nm, we achieve efficient, tunable second harmonic generation at 780 nm. The χ2 nonlinear susceptibility is measured to be as high as 16 ± 7 pm/...

متن کاملSilicon-on-nitride waveguides for mid- and near-infrared integrated photonics
Silicon-on-nitride ridge waveguides are demonstrated and characterized at midand near-infrared optical wavelengths. Silicon-on-nitride thin films were achieved by bonding a silicon handling die to a silicon-on-insulator die coated with a low-stress silicon nitride layer. Subsequent removal of the silicon-on-insulator substrate results in a thin film of silicon on a nitride bottom cladding, read...
متن کاملHigh Q micro-ring resonators fabricated from polycrystalline aluminum nitride films for near infrared and visible photonics.
We demonstrate wideband integrated photonic circuits in sputter-deposited aluminum nitride (AlN) thin films. At both near-infrared and visible wavelengths, we achieve low propagation loss in integrated waveguides and realize high-quality optical resonators. In the telecoms C-band (1520-1580 nm), we obtain the highest optical Q factor of 440,000. Critical coupled devices show extinction ratio ab...
