On-chip correlation-based Brillouin sensing: design, experiment and simulation

Applied Physics 2019-01-30 v1 Optics

Abstract

Wavelength-scale SBS waveguides are enabling novel on-chip functionalities. The micro- and nano-scale SBS structures and the complexity of the SBS waveguides require a characterization technique to monitor the local geometry-dependent SBS responses along the waveguide. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate detection of longitudinal features down to 200μ\mum on a silicon-chalcogenide waveguide using the Brillouin optical correlation domain analysis (BOCDA) technique. We provide simulation and analysis on how multiple acoustic and optical modes and geometrical variations influence the Brillouin spectrum.
