Silicon Photonics: silicon nitride versus silicon-on-insulator

Optical Fiber Communication Conference, 2016
Silicon photonics typically builds on a silicon-on-insulator based high-index-contrast waveguide system. Silicon nitride provides an alternative moderate-index-contrast system that is manufacturable in the same CMOS environment. This paper discusses the relative benefits of both platforms.

Ultra-compact and Low Crosstalk 1xN Multimode Interference Splitter on Silicon-on-insulator

2020 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Pacific Rim (CLEO-PR), 2020
We present a compact silicon-on-insulator multimode interference power splitter based on non-uniform optical waveguides, which achieves crosstalk reduction, a high uniformity and small device footprint while maintaining a low insertion loss.

Silicon-on-Insulator Wafers with Buried Cavities [PDF]

Journal of The Electrochemical Society, 2006
Direct bonding and mechanical thinning of pre-etched silicon wafers have been studied for the fabrication of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers with buried cavities. The thin Si diaphragm over the cavity is deflected downward during the grinding and polishing, as the thinning is carried out without supporting the diaphragm.

Biosensors in silicon on insulator

SPIE Proceedings, 2009
We present several nanophotonic biosensors on silicon-on-insulator: ring resonator based devices, slotted ring resonators to increase the interaction between light and the sample, and finally devices based on nanoplasmonic interferometers.

Thickness measurement on insulating silicon oxide layers on silicon structures with dielectric insulation [PDF]

Measurement Techniques, 1983
Interference is among the commonest methods of measuring epitaxial film thicknesses [i, 2]. Spectrophotometers working in the visible and infrared regions are used [3]. The measurements involve determining the positions of the interference maxima in the reflection spectra. The effects of factors that influence the accuracy are closely known [4].

SILICON ON INSULATOR TECHNOLOGY

International Journal of High Speed Electronics and Systems, 1999
Silicon On Insulator (SOI) has been developed to accompany the CMOS technology and take the relay when bulk silicon faces processing frontiers. Such limitations have not occurred quickly enough, therefore SOI remains restricted to niche applications, essentially in the field of radiation-hard integrated circuits. It has been a long wait.

Optomechanical cavities in silicon-on-insulator

Integrated Optics: Devices, Materials, and Technologies XXVII, 2023
Integrated optomechanical cavities allow precise control of optical and mechanical modes and enable strong photonphonon interactions in micron-scale volume, key for the implementation of microwave-photonic oscillators and quantum transducers. Silicon photonics provides low production cost and compatibility with the state-of-art optoelectronic circuitry.
