PatentDOI

Compact and low loss Y-junction for submicron silicon waveguide

TL;DR: In this article, a low-loss and wavelength insensitive Y-junction for submicron silicon waveguides was proposed using FDTD and particle swarm optimization (PSO).
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultralow loss single layer submicron silicon waveguide crossing for SOI optical interconnect

TL;DR: Compact, broadband, ultralow loss silicon waveguide crossings operating at 1550 nm and 1310 nm, fabricated in a CMOS-compatible process using 248 nm optical lithography with a single etch step.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultralow drive voltage silicon traveling-wave modulator

TL;DR: A CMOS-compatible broadband traveling-wave modulator based on a reverse-biased pn junction is demonstrated, demonstrating operation with a drive voltage of 0.63 Vpp at 20 Gb/s, a significant improvement in the state of the art.
Journal ArticleDOI

Silicon Photonics: The Next Fabless Semiconductor Industry

TL;DR: The same foundries and processes that were developed to build transistors are being repurposed to build chips that can generate, detect, modulate, and otherwise manipulate light as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

A high-responsivity photodetector absent metal-germanium direct contact

TL;DR: A Ge-on-Si photodetector without doped Ge or Ge-metal contacts is reported, despite the simplified fabrication process, and it is demonstrated that dark current is less than 1µA under both bias conditions.
