We retrieve the thermal dissipation time of τ=0.25µs and investigate the power dependent absorption in a SiN microring resonator. We estimate n2=4.3×10−19m2/W based on clear 1 GHz optical modulation of the refractive index.
We demonstrate an optical diode with up to 28dB transmission contrast at telecommunication wavelengths. It is based on strong optical nonlinearity in two resonance-matched silicon microrings. No external assistance other than input light is required.
Strong confinement of light in silicon waveguides allows for sharp bends and, as a result, high-density integration. However, the mode transition loss between the straight and bent portions of a silicon waveguide begins to affect the device performance when the bending radius becomes small. In this letter, we show that a transition region with a step taper between the straight and bent portions of...
