Journal ArticleDOI
Athermal operation of Silicon waveguides: spectral, second order and footprint dependencies
TL;DR: The materials selection tradeoffs between high- index contrast (HIC) and low-index contrast (LIC) systems are evaluated and it is shown, remarkably, that FSR and footprint become comparable under the constraint of athermal design.
Journal ArticleDOI
Birefringence control using stress engineering in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguides
Winnie N. Ye,Dan-Xia Xu,Siegfried Janz,Pavel Cheben,Marie-Josée Picard,Boris Lamontagne,N. G. Tarr +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that stress engineering is an effective tool to modify or eliminate polarization dispersion in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide devices, for a wide range of waveguide cross-section shapes and dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fiber-chip edge coupler with large mode size for silicon photonic wire waveguides.
Martin Papes,Pavel Cheben,Daniel Benedikovic,Jens H. Schmid,James Pond,Robert Halir,Alejandro Ortega-Moñux,G. Wanguemert-Perez,Winnie N. Ye,Dan-Xia Xu,Siegfried Janz,Milan Dado,Vladimir Vasinek +12 more
TL;DR: A new fiber-chip edge coupler concept with large mode size for silicon photonic wire waveguides with an overall coupling efficiency exceeding 90%, as independently confirmed by 3D Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) and fully vectorial 3D Eigenmode Expansion (EME) calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two-mode division multiplexing in a silicon-on-insulator ring resonator
Bryce Dorin,Winnie N. Ye +1 more
TL;DR: The design and fabrication of a two-mode SOI ring resonator for MDM systems on SOI is presented, demonstrating a signal-to-crosstalk ratio above 18 dB for both modes at the through and drop ports and concluding that the ring resonators has the potential for filtering and switching.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eliminating the birefringence in silicon-on-insulator ridge waveguides by use of cladding stress
Dan-Xia Xu,Pavel Cheben,Dan Dalacu,André Delâge,Siegfried Janz,Boris Lamontagne,Marie-Josée Picard,Winnie N. Ye +7 more
TL;DR: The cladding stress-induced photoelastic effect is proposed and demonstrated to eliminate modal birefringence in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) ridge waveguides and mode mismatch loss is negligible.
