A new electro‐optic phase shifter device architecture consisting of two lateral rail electrodes in doped silicon close to a waveguide with a liquid crystal cladding is demonstrated. Starting with a completed silicon photonics wafer of IMEC's iSiPP50G platf ...
Noble metals such as gold and silver have been used extensively for a range of plasmonic applications, including enhancing the fluorescence rate of a dye molecule, as evidenced by numerous experiments over the past two decades. Recently, a variety of doped ...
Hydrogenated amorphous silicon is a well-known detector material for its radiation resistance. For this reason it has been used in particle beam flux measurements and in solar panels designed for space applications. This study concern 10 & mu;m thickness, ...
Silicon photonic circuits are rapidly growing in complexity and spreading to new applications. However, programmable circuits consume much power and require active electrical interfaces. For the first time, we demonstrate a nonvolatile photonic MEMS pi-pha ...
