Efficient Coupling between Dielectric-Loaded Plasmonic and Silicon Photonic Waveguides [PDF]
The realization of practical on-chip plasmonic devices will require efficient coupling of light into and out of surface plasmon waveguides over short length scales.

TE/TM-Pass Polarizer Based on Lithium Niobate on Insulator Ridge Waveguide
We propose a TE/TM-pass polarizer based on a shallow X-cut lithium niobate-on-insulator (LNOI) ridge waveguide. In shallow X-cut LNOI ridge waveguides, the leaky mode is interchanged between TE and TM polarization waves depending on the ridge waveguide ...

Biocompatible silk step-index optical waveguides.
Biocompatible optical waveguides were constructed entirely of silk fibroin. A silk film (n=1.54) was encapsulated within a silk hydrogel (n=1.34) to form a robust and biocompatible waveguide.

Stimulated Brillouin Scattering in integrated photonic waveguides: forces, scattering mechanisms and coupled mode analysis [PDF]
Recent theoretical studies of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) in nanoscale devices have led to an intense research effort dedicated to the demonstration and application of this nonlinearity in on-chip systems.

Waveguides, bends and Y-junctions with improved transmission and bandwidth in hexagon-type SOI photonic crystal slabs [PDF]
This paper presents novel ways of implementing waveguide components in photonic crystal slabs based on silicon-on-insulator (SOI). The integration platform we consider consists of hexa¬gonal holes arranged in a triangular lattice (‘hexagon-type’ photonic

Laser-Inscribed Diamond Waveguide Resonantly Coupled to Diamond Microsphere
An all-diamond photonic circuit was implemented by integrating a diamond microsphere with a femtosecond-laser-written bulk diamond waveguide. The near surface waveguide was fabricated by exploiting the Type II fabrication method to achieve stress-induced

Losses in single-mode silicon-on-insulator strip waveguides and bends.
We report the fabrication and accurate measurement of propagation and bending losses in single-mode silicon waveguides with submicron dimensions fabricated on silicon-on-insulator wafers.

Gain-assisted slow to superluminal group velocity manipulation in nano-waveguides
We study the energy propagation in subwavelength waveguides and demonstrate that the mechanism of material gain, previously suggested for loss compensation, is also a powerful tool to manipulate dispersion and propagation characteristics of ...
