Ultrahigh-quality-factor silicon-on-insulator microring resonator
TL;DR: The development of ultrahigh-quality-factor (Q) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) microring resonators based on silicon wire waveguides is presented, illustrating that in addition to low propagation losses the critical coupling condition is essential for optimizing device characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pockels effect based fully integrated, strained silicon electro-optic modulator
Bartos Chmielak,Michael Waldow,Christopher Matheisen,Christian Ripperda,Jens Bolten,Thorsten Wahlbrink,Michael Nagel,Florian Merget,Heinrich Kurz +8 more
TL;DR: Electro-optic characterization yields a record high value χ(2)(yyz) = 122 pm/V for the second-order susceptibility of the strained silicon waveguide and a strict linear dependence between the applied modulation voltage V(mod) and the resulting effective index change Δn(eff).
Journal ArticleDOI
Silicon-Organic Hybrid Electro-Optical Devices
Juerg Leuthold,Christian Koos,Wolfgang Freude,Luca Alloatti,Robert Palmer,Dietmar Korn,J. Pfeifle,Matthias Lauermann,Raluca Dinu,S. Wehrli,Mojca Jazbinsek,Peter Günter,Michael Waldow,Thorsten Wahlbrink,Jens Bolten,Heinrich Kurz,Maryse Fournier,Jean-Marc Fedeli,Hui Yu,Wim Bogaerts +19 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the SOH platform and discuss important devices such as Mach-Zehnder and IQ-modulators based on the linear electro-optic effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrafast Kerr-induced all-optical wavelength conversion in silicon waveguides using 1.55 μm femtosecond pulses
Ronald Dekker,Alfred Driessen,Thorsten Wahlbrink,Christian Moormann,J. Niehusmann,Michael Först +5 more
TL;DR: A microring resonator based device is proposed that exploits the observed wavelength shift for sub-picosecond all-optical switching.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mobility in graphene double gate field effect transistors
Max C. Lemme,Tim Echtermeyer,M. Baus,B. N. Szafranek,Jens Bolten,Matthias Schmidt,Thorsten Wahlbrink,Heinrich Kurz +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, double-gated field effect transistors manufactured from monolayer graphene are investigated and the carrier mobility of single-and doublegated graphene FETs are compared.
