Ultracompact on-chip photothermal power monitor based on silicon hybrid plasmonic waveguides
Nanophotonics, 2017 We propose and demonstrate an ultracompact on-chip photothermal power monitor based on a silicon hybrid plasmonic waveguide (HPWG), which consists of a metal strip, a silicon core, and a silicon oxide (SiO2) insulator layer between them.
