Mid-Infrared Sensor Based on a Suspended Microracetrack Resonator With Lateral Subwavelength-Grating Metamaterial Cladding

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2018
A mid-infrared (MIR) biochemical sensor based on a one-time Si etching suspended microracetrack resonator with lateral subwavelength-grating metamaterial cladding is theoretically and experimentally demonstrated on a commercial 340-nm-thick-top-silicon ...

Multifunctionality in Silicon Photonics Through Temperature‐Driven Inverse Design

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Temperature‐conditioned inverse design embeds thermo‐optic reconfigurability directly into compact silicon photonic devices. By co‐optimizing a single geometry at 300 K (T1) and 520 K (T2), the same structure supports distinct optical functions, enabling experimentally verified switching and mode conversion without resonant architectures or additional ...

Laser nanofabrication inside silicon with spatial beam modulation and anisotropic seeding

open access: yesNature Communications
Nanofabrication in silicon, arguably the most important material for modern technology, has been limited exclusively to its surface. Existing lithography methods cannot penetrate the wafer surface without altering it, whereas emerging laser-based ...

Photonic nanovoids for tailored optoelectronic response in silicon solar cells

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Optoelectronic workflow followed by experimental validation, demonstrating state‐of‐the‐art efficiency gains. Abstract As crystalline silicon (c‐Si) solar cells become thinner to reduce cost and weight, the optical design principles that govern light trapping (LT) must evolve.

Tailoring the Structure of Multilayered Hybrid Silicon Vertical Waveguide to Achieve Anomalous Dispersion

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2017
In order to decrease the dispersion of the silicon vertical slot waveguide, we propose a multilayered hybrid silicon vertical waveguide structure. This multilayered waveguide is formed by three low-refractive-index regions interleaved with two narrow ...

Engineering and Tuning of High Quality Hexagonal Boron Nitride Nanophotonic Resonators

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The manuscript explores nanofabrication protocols for photonic crystal cavities and microdisk resonators from hexagonal boron nitride. High Q cavities are fabricated and their resonances are controllably tuned. The work is important for future realization of quantum technologies with hexagonal boron nitride.

High Extinction Ratio and Broadband Silicon TE-Pass Polarizer Using Subwavelength Grating Index Engineering

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2015
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel approach to implement a low-loss, broadband, and compact transverse electric (TE)-pass polarizer on a silicon-on-insulator platform.

Multi‐Scale Engineering of Photonic Meta‐Structures With Emergent Optical Resonances via Colloidal Crystal Engineering With DNA and Microwell Templates

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This work presents a bottom‐up strategy for forming meta‐structures built from DNA‐assembled nanoparticle superlattices, establishing a versatile platform for multiscale photonic materials design. Confinement stabilizes non‐equilibrium crystal habits and enables geometry and mode control independent of lattice symmetry.

Bend Waveguides on Silicon Nanowire Optical Waveguide (SNOW)

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2011
In a previous work, we reported a novel optical waveguide named silicon nanowire optical waveguide (SNOW), which consists of arrayed silicon nanowires acting like an effective-index medium.
