The advent of slot waveguide structure has led the field of nano-photonics into an era, where maximum light can be confined inside low index slot guarded by high index slabs. Already in use slot waveguides (contrast ratio is 2.42) have two distinct properties over the conventional waveguides, i.e. high E-field amplitude, optical power, optical intensity in low index materials and a strong E-field...
We critically assess recent progress in the integration of near-infrared photodetectors onto nanophotonic silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide circuits. Integration of thin-film InGaAs photodetectors is studied in detail. This method consists of bonding unprocessed III-V dies onto the SOI substrate using an intermediate adhesive layer. Both benzocyclobutene and spin-on glass are studied and compared...
While silica-on-silicon is recognized as one of the dominant platforms for microphotonics today, silicon-on-insulator nanowire waveguides appear to be the technology for next generation of super compact integrated devices. Due to very high refractive index contrast and strong light confinement in the core, the waveguide bend radius can be reduced to a few micrometers and the size reduction of the...
