Ultrasensitive Silicon Photonic-crystal Nanobeam Electro-optical Modulator (preprint)
Design and simulation results are presented for an ultralow switching energy, resonator based silicon-on-insulator (SOI) electro-optical modulator. The nanowire waveguide and resonator are seamlessly integrated via a high-transmission tapered 1D photonic crystal cavity waveguide structure. A lateral p-n junction of modulation length ~λ is used to alter the index of refraction through fast carri...
متن کاملCompact 1D-silicon photonic crystal electro-optic modulator operating with ultra-low switching voltage and energy.
We demonstrate a small foot print (600 nm wide) 1D silicon photonic crystal electro-optic modulator operating with only a 50 mV swing voltage and 0.1 fJ/bit switching energy at GHz speeds, which are the lowest values ever reported for a silicon electro-optic modulator. A 3 dB extinction ratio is demonstrated with an ultra-low 50 mV swing voltage with a total device energy consumption of 42.8 fJ...
متن کاملUltra-low threshold gallium nitride photonic crystal nanobeam laser
GaN-based materials are well-recognized for their exceptional optical qualities, particularly in the blue and UV parts of the spectrum. In addition, their wide bandgaps allow efficient operation at room temperature and higher. This work will describe the room-temperature performance of optically-pumped GaN photonic crystal (PC) nanobeam lasers, with thresholds as low as 9.1 μJ/cm2, the lowest r...
متن کاملAnalysis of an electro-optic modulator based on a graphene-silicon hybrid 1D photonic crystal nanobeam cavity.
We propose and numerically study an on-chip graphene-silicon hybrid electro-optic (EO) modulator operating at the telecommunication band, which is implemented by a compact 1D photonic crystal nanobeam (PCN) cavity coupled to a bus waveguide with a graphene sheet on top. Through electrically tuning the Fermi level of the graphene, both the quality factor and the resonance wavelength can be signi...
متن کاملProgrammable photonic crystal nanobeam cavities.
We present dynamically reconfigurable photonic crystal nanobeam cavities, operating at ~1550 nm, that can be continuously and reversibly tuned over a 9.5 nm wavelength range. The devices are formed by two coupled nanobeam cavities, and the tuning is achieved by varying the lateral gap between the nanobeams. An electrostatic force, obtained by applying bias voltages directly to the nanobeams, is...
