3 × 3 slot waveguide crossing based on Maxwell’s fisheye lens [PDF]
. Intersection of two or more silicon slot waveguides is inevitable in modern optical integrated circuits based on a silicon-on-insulator platform. We design a Maxwell’s fisheye lens as the crossing medium for three Si slot waveguides and numerically ...

Towards a millivolt optical modulator with nano-slot waveguides [PDF]
We describe a class of modulator design involving slot waveguides and electro-optic polymer claddings. Such geometries enable massive enhancement of index tuning when compared to more conventional geometries.

Efficient terahertz slot-line waveguides
We present two solutions to the challenge of radiation loss of slot-lines at terahertz frequencies: using a slot-line in a homogeneous medium, and using a slot-line on a layered substrate. A theoretical analysis of the slot-line in a homogeneous medium as a terahertz transmission line is presented. The absorption coefficient is obtained in terms of the

Investigation of Hybrid Silicon-Nitride/Polymer Waveguides for Second-Harmonic Generation
We propose a hybrid silicon-nitride (Si3N4 or SiN for short)/nonlinear polymer waveguide to achieve second-harmonic generation of an input 1550 nm signal by modal phase-matching between zero-order spatial mode at 1550 nm and second ...

Ultrabroadband Compact Graphene–Silicon TM-Pass Polarizer
Graphene is treated as an anisotropic material because it is one atom thick and its π electrons cause electric conduction in its plane. Based on the polarization-dependent absorption, we design compact broadband transverse-magnetic (TM)-pass ...

Enhanced spontaneous raman signal collected evanescently by silicon nitride slot waveguides [PDF]
We investigate the effect of waveguide geometry on the conversion efficiency of Raman signals collected by integrated photonic waveguides. Compared to strip-type photonic wires, we report a six-fold increase in conversion efficiency for silicon-nitride ...

Optimization of a horizontal slot waveguide biosensor to detect DNA hybridization [PDF]
A full-vectorial H-field formulation-based finite element approach is used to optimize a biosensor structure incorporating a horizontal slot waveguide. It is designed to detect DNA hybridization through the change of the effective index of the waveguide ...
