Resonance Enhancement of a Monolithically Integrated Common Cavity Device
نویسندگان
چکیده
The demand for optical bandwidth continues to increase at an exponential rate [1]. In order to maximise the capacity of current network infrastructure, new varieties of optical transmitters and receivers are under development. Monolithic integration of optical components on a common substrate has the potential to satisfy demand due to its ability to reduce component size, power consumption, and overall cost per unit in optical communication systems

Using Narrow-Linewidth Lasers for Rapidly Tunable Microwave Signal Generators
Narrow-linewidth lasers are a key component of photonic microwave signal generators, as the width of the generated RF signal is equal to the beat note of used lasers. Heterogeneous silicon photonics platform opens up a possibility of improving the coherence of fully integrated photonic microwave generators by providing means to separate the photon resonator and absorbing active medium; improvin...
متن کاملMonolithically Integrated 1GHz Extended Cavity Linear Mode-Locked Laser
We report a monolithically integrated 42 mm long cavity linear mode-locked laser at 1541 nm, with a low repetition rate at 1 GHz. The device uses InP-based active-passive integration technology and integrated multimode interference reflectors. Passive (PML) and hybrid mode-locked (HML) regime operation are experimentally demonstrated. The device exhibits a very narrow RF linewidth of the beat n...
متن کاملResonant cavity enhancement of polycrystalline PbTe films for IR detectors on Si-ROICs
In this paper, we demonstrate high optical quantum efficiency (90%) resonant-cavity-enhanced mid-infrared photodetectors fabricated monolithically on a silicon platform. High quality photoconductive polycrystalline PbTe film is thermally evaporated, oxygen-sensitized at room temperature and acts as the infrared absorber. The cavity-enhanced detector operates in the critical coupling regime and ...
متن کاملOptical field enhancement factor of Silicon and indium phosphide nano-cavities
Nano cavities based on silicon and indium phosphide materials have been comparedin this study, considering field intensity enhancement factor. The results of FDTD based simulations declare that the Si nano-cavity improves confined optical field about 7.7 times higher than the InP based nano-cavity. The introduced dielectric nano-cavities support resonance wavelength at about λ=1.55 μm.
متن کاملPolarization Sensing with Resonant Cavity Enhanced Photodetectors
We describe a new method of sensing the linear polarization of light using resonant cavity enhanced (RCE) photodetectors. The RCE detectors are constructed by integrating a thin absorption region into an asymmetric Fabry-Perot cavity. The top re ector is formed by the semiconductor air interface, while the bottom mirror is a Distributed Bragg Re ector (DBR). Quantum e ciency of these RCE device...
