Nonlinear silicon-on-insulator waveguides for all-optical signal processing.
Values up to gamma=7 x 10(6)/(W km) for the nonlinear parameter are feasible if silicon-on-insulator based strip and slot waveguides are properly designed. This is more than three orders of magnitude larger than for state-of-the-art highly nonlinear fibers, and it enables ultrafast all-optical signal processing with nonresonant compact devices. At lambda=1.55 microm we provide universal design ...
متن کاملUltrafast All-Optical Signal Processing in Engineered Quadratic Nonlinear Waveguides
The potential of a χ photonics, implemented in periodically poled Lithium Niobate (PPLN) waveguides with an engineerable quadratic nonlinearity, for ultrafast all-optical signal routing and switching will be evaluated. High bit rate signal regeneration and routing, based on spatial soliton formation in film waveguides, as well as transparent switching, based on parametric amplification in waveg...

متن کاملAll-optical high-speed signal processing with silicon–organic hybrid slot waveguides
Integrated optical circuits based on silicon-on-insulator technology are likely to become the mainstay of the photonics industry. Over recent years an impressive range of silicon-oninsulator devices has been realized, including waveguides1,2, filters3,4 and photonic-crystal devices5. However, siliconbased all-optical switching is still challenging owing to the slow dynamics of two-photon genera...
متن کاملOptical pulse compression based on nonlinear silicon waveguides and chirped Bragg gratings
Due to the growing demand for higher bandwidth, employing optical devices instead of electronic devices in data transmission systems has attracted much attention in recent years. Optical switches, modulators and wavelength converters are a few examples of the required optical devices. CMOS compatible fabrication of these devices, leads to much more growing of this technology. Optical pulse comp...
