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 ...

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.

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.

Computational silicon nanophotonic design

2018
Photonic integration circuits (PICs) have received overwhelming attention in the past few decades due to various advantages over electronic circuits including absence of Joule effect and huge bandwidth. The most significant problem obstructing their commercial application is the integration density, which is largely determined by a signal wavelength ...

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

Scaling laws of nonlinear silicon nanophotonics

SPIE Proceedings, 2005
Scaling properties of two photon absorption, free carrier scattering, Raman scattering and Kerr effect in silicon waveguides is reported. It is shown that the dependence of minority carrier lifetime on waveguide dimensions has a profound impact on the performance of nonlinear optical devices built using silicon waveguides.

Silicon nanophotonics : nanolasers with a twist

Nature Photonics, 2011
Optics is widely considered to be the best solution for coping with the growing information traffic found inside increasingly complex electronic processors and circuits. In particular, it is believed that the speed bottleneck inside and between processor chips will significantly impede further growth in the field electronics1. One of the major research

Technology Challenges for Silicon Nanophotonics and Beyond

2007 9th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks, 2007
The development of Si-based photonics has been far behind the development of electronics for long time. There are two reasons for that. As silicon is an indirect band gap semiconductor, achieving light emission and gain is quite difficult. On the other hand, for using silicon as a light guiding material for passive devices, the main constrains until ...

Nationwide Entanglement Distribution with Silicon Nanophotonic Chip

Optical Fiber Communication Conference (OFC) 2025
We developed a silicon chip capable of producing and delivering a detected rate of 460,000 pairs of entangled photons with a fidelity of 97.90(3)% fidelity. The entangled photons were transmitted over 155 km of fiber deployed across Singapore (66 dB loss), demonstrating a major advance in the capability of silicon nanophotonics for powering future ...
