We demonstrate optically stable amorphous silicon nanowires with both high nonlinear figure of merit (FOM) of ~5 and high nonlinearity Re({\gamma}) = 1200W-1m-1.

The nonlinear characteristics of hydrogenated amorphous silicon nanowires are experimentally demonstrated. A high nonlinear refractive index, n2=1.19 x 10-17 m2/W, combined with a low two-photon absorption, 0.14 x 10-11 m/W, resulted in a…
