Silicon photonics meets the electronics requirement of increased speed and bandwidth with
on-chip optical networks. All-optical data management requires nonlinear silicon photonics …

We demonstrate second-and third-harmonic generation in a centrosymmetric CMOS-
compatible material using ring resonators and integrated optical waveguides. The χ^(2) …

Nonlinear silicon photonics has shown an ability to generate, manipulate, and detect optical
signals on an ultracompact chip at a potential low cost. There are still barriers hindering its …

We demonstrate for the first time a fully integrated electro-optic modulator based on locally
strained silicon rib-waveguides. By depositing a Si_3N_4 strain layer directly on top of the …

With the rapid advance of integrated optics, the importance of optical waveguides, which are
the fundamental elements of optical integrated circuits, has been widely recognized. For …

A review of recent progress in the field of strained silicon photonics is presented. The
application of strain to waveguide and photonic crystal structures can be used to alter the …

Silicon photonics, considered as a major photonic platform for optical communications in
data centers, is today also developed for others applications including quantum photonics …

Although silicon does not possess a dipolar bulk second order nonlinear susceptibility due
to its centro-symmetric crystal structure, in recent years several attempts were undertaken to …

We measure the voltage-dependent phase shift in silicon waveguides strained by a silicon
nitride layer and show that, in our measurements, the phase shift is due to free carrier …

We experimentally demonstrate quasi-phase-matched (QPM) four-wave-mixing (FWM) in
silicon (Si) nanowire waveguides with sinusoidally modulated width. We perform discrete …
