چکیده

Cavity optomechanical systems with an enhanced coupling between mechanical motion and electromagnetic radiation have permitted the investigation of many novel physical effects. The optomechanical coupling in the majority of these systems is of dispersive nature: the cavity resonance frequency is modulated by the vibrations of the mechanical oscillator. Dissipative optomechanical interaction, where the photon lifetime in the cavity is modulated by the mechanical motion, has recently attracted considerable interest and opens new avenues in optomechanical control and sensing. In this work we demonstrate an external optical control over the dissipative optomechanical coupling strength mediated by the modulation of the absorption of a quantum dot layer in a hybrid optomechanical system. Such control enhances the capability of tailoring the optomechanical coupling of our platform, which can be used in complement to the previously demonstrated control of the relative (dispersive to dissipative) coupling strength via the geometry of the integrated access waveguide.

Light Coupling Between Photonic Crystal and Standard Photonic Waveguides in a Compact Photonic Integrated Circuitry Using 2D FDTD

Finite difference time domain (FDTD) analysis was used to design a photonic integrated circuitry (PIC) based on a Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) structure. Light coupling efficiency from a single mode photonic crystal waveguide (PCW) into a single mode fibre (SMF) through adiabatic tapered waveguide and microrings based on resonance acting as spot-size converters (SSCs), is demonstrated. Optimisati...

Novel adiabatic tapered couplers for active III-V/SOI devices fabricated through transfer printing.

We present the design of two novel adiabatic tapered coupling structures that allow efficient and alignment tolerant mode conversion between a III-V membrane waveguide and a single-mode SOI waveguide in active heterogeneously integrated devices. Both proposed couplers employ a broad intermediate waveguide to facilitate highly alignment tolerant coupling. This robustness is needed to comply with...
