Silicon nanostructures for photonics

Proceedings. International Semiconductor Conference, 2003
Nanostructuring silicon is an effective way to turn silicon into a photonic material. In fact low dimensional silicon shows light amplification characteristics, non-linear optical effects, photon confinement in both one and two dimensions, photon trapping with evidence of light localization, and gas sensing properties.

The Revolution of Silicon Photonics

2019 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Europe & European Quantum Electronics Conference (CLEO/Europe-EQEC), 2019
We are now experiencing a revolution in optical technologies, where one can print and control massive optical circuits, on a microelectronic chip. This revolution is enabling a whole range of applications that are in need for scalable optical technologies and its opening the door to areas that only a decade ago were unimaginable.

Photonic crystals and silicon photonics

SPIE Proceedings, 2006
Recent important advances in subwavelength nanostructures offer extraordinary control over the properties of light. We can now manipulate the propagation, storage, and generation of light, as well as practically prescribe its matter interaction properties based on first-principles.

Silicon photonics for microwave photonics [PDF]

open access: possible2018 3rd International Conference on Microwave and Photonics (ICMAP), 2018
Characteristics of silicon photonic integrated circuits that have enabled their inclusion in digitial communication systems are discussed. Frequencies and wavelengths of operation of microwave and optical/infrared systems of interest are defined. The uses of optical components in microwave systems are motivated and demonstrations of such microwave ...

The silicon solution [silicon photonics

IEEE Spectrum, 2005
As newer, faster microprocessors roll out, the copper connections that feed those processors within computers and servers will prove inadequate to handle huge amounts of data. To address this concern, this paper proposes the replacement of the copper with optical fiber and the electrons with photons. Called silicon photonics, this technology will allow

Silicon nanostructures for photonics and photovoltaics

Nature Nanotechnology, 2014
Silicon has long been established as the material of choice for the microelectronics industry. This is not yet true in photonics, where the limited degrees of freedom in material design combined with the indirect bandgap are a major constraint. Recent developments, especially those enabled by nanoscale engineering of the electronic and photonic ...
