Monolithic Integration of Electronics and Sub-wavelength Metal Optics in Deep Submicron CMOS Technology
The structures that can be implemented and the materials that are used in complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) integrated circuit (IC) technology are optimized for electronic performance. However, they are also suitable for manipulating and detecting optical signals. In this paper, we show that while CMOS scaling trends are motivated by improved electronic performance, they are also c...
متن کاملPhotonic Crystal Nanocavities for Efficient Light Confinement and Emission
When combined with high index contrast slabs in which light can be efficiently guided, microfabricated two-dimensional photonic crystals provide us with the geometries needed to confine and concentrate light into extremely small volumes and to obtain very high field intensities. Fabrication of optical structures has now evolved to a precision which allows us to control light within such etched ...
متن کاملUltrafast nonlinear effects in one-dimensional photonic crystals
This thesis deals with the temporal dynamics of light interacting with a special class of nano-structures: so-called photonic crystals (PCs). The focus of these investigations is nonlinear phenomena on a sub-picosecond time scale. PCs are solid-state nano-structures with a spatially periodic dielectric function. They influence propagating light in an analogous manner to that of electronic motio...
متن کاملHybrid photonic-plasmonic crystal nanocavities.
We propose a hybrid optical nanocavity consisting of photonic crystals coupled to a metal surface with a nanoscale air gap between. The hybridization of photonic crystal modes and surface plasmons across the gap forms hybrid cavity modes, which are highly confined in the low-loss air gap region. Deep subwavelength mode volume and high quality factor are demonstrated at telecommunication wavelen...
متن کاملPhotonic hypercrystals for control of light-matter interactions.
Photonic crystals (PCs) have emerged as one of the most widely used platforms for controlling light-matter interaction in solid-state systems. They rely on Bragg scattering from wavelength-sized periodic modulation in the dielectric environment for manipulating the electromagnetic field. A complementary approach to manipulate light-matter interaction is offered by artificial media known as meta...
