Nanophotonic biosensors in silicon-on-insulator

2013 Transducers & Eurosensors XXVII: The 17th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems (TRANSDUCERS & EUROSENSORS XXVII), 2013
In this paper, two recent advances in silicon ring resonator biosensors are presented. First, we address the problem that due to the high index contrast, small deviations from perfect symmetry lift the degeneracy of the normal resonator mode. This severely deteriorates the quality of the output signal.

Nonreciprocal silicon-organic nanophotonic structures

SPIE Proceedings, 2011
We present a setup to measure the nonreciprocal magneto-optical phase shift in air and polymer cladded silicon on insulator waveguides. A high sensitivity could be achieved for the setup sufficient to determine the effect produced by silicon and silica.

3C Silicon Carbide Nanophotonics

Frontiers in Optics 2016, 2016
The development of novel photonic materials can offer new capabilities for non-linear and quantum optics. We demonstrate key components for a photonic platform in 3C-SiC, including high-confinement waveguides, grating couplers and high-Q resonators.

Dynamic Silicon Nanophotonics

2013
Abstract : Dynamic tuning of optical cavities enables rich new capabilities that operate with low power, are linear, efficient, compact and CMOS compatible. These dynamic devices are based on the fundamental principle that light propagating within a cavity must inherently match the properties of the cavity at all times.

Hybrid silicon-ferroelectric oxide platform for tunable nanophotonics on silicon

2016 18th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (ICTON), 2016
In this communication, we present strategies to implement novel or enhanced optoelectronic functionalities on silicon via the monolithic integration of functional oxides as active layers for nanophotonic devices. We focus on the use of ferroelectric oxides with naturally strong electro-optical coefficients such as BaTiO 3 (BTO) on SOI for the ...

Silica-Embedded Silicon Nanophotonic On-Chip Networks

IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems, 2017
On-chip nanophotonics offer high throughput, yet energy-efficient communication, traits that can prove critical to the continuance of multicore chip scalability. In this paper, we investigate and propose silicon nanophotonic components that are embedded entirely in the silica (SiO2) substrate, i.e., reside subsurface, as opposed to die on-surface ...

Nanophotonics silicon solar cells

2017
High-speed economic development in a modern society requires enormous energy consumption, in which electricity plays an important role. By the year 2040, the world energy consumption is predicted to boost to about 23 TW, which is mainly from the nonrenewable resources such as coal, oil, and gas, producing carbon dioxide (CO2) contributing detrimentally

Silicon- and plasmonics-based nanophotonics for telecom and interconnects

2014 16th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (ICTON), 2014
Silicon nanophotonics became recently a very promising solution for high-speed signal transmission and processing with high bandwidth and very compact size, even for multifunctional integrated structures. With submicron waveguide cross section and bending radius down to 2 mu m with acceptable losses (0.04 dB/90 degrees bend) these structures give ...

Silicon nanophotonics and silicon-organic hybrid (SOH) integration

2011 XXXth URSI General Assembly and Scientific Symposium, 2011
Silicon nanophotonics is considered a key enabler of future photonic-electronic information processing systems. Driven by substantial research investments, photonic integration on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates has reached a degree of maturity that already permits industrial adoption.
