We report on the development of InP-based semiconductor amplifiers with a U-bend waveguide geometry having the input and output ports on one facet only. This waveguide geometry simplifies the chip alignment during the hybrid integration on…
We experimentally demonstrate a broadband, fabrication tolerant, CMOS compatible compact silicon waveguide taper (34.2 um) in silicon-on-insulator wire waveguides. The taper works on multi-mode interference along the length of the taper. A…
The miniaturization of pixel is essential for achieving high-resolution, planar, compact-size focal plane arrays (FPAs); however, the resulted increase in the optical crosstalk between adjacent pixels leads to serious drawback and…
Even though submicron silicon waveguides have been proposed for dense integration of photonic devices, to date the lightwave circuits on the market mainly rely on waveguides with micron-scale core dimensions. These larger waveguides feature…
