Proceedings ArticleDOI
III-V-on-Silicon 1-GHz Mode-Locked Lasers Towards Frequency-Comb Applications
Kasper Van Gasse,Zhechao Wang,Gunther Roelkens,Theodor W. Hänsch,Bart Kuyken,Nathalie Picqué +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the fundamental and technical noise sources in III-V-on-silicon mode-locked lasers are investigated and minimized, and their frequency stability is optimized to make them suited to applications such as dual-comb spectroscopy or dual-cell LIDAR.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Fabrication and characterization of deeply-etched SiO2 waveguides
TL;DR: In this paper, a deeply-etched SiO2 waveguide is fabricated and characterized, which exhibits good performances, such as low propagation loss, broad band, and low power consumption.
Proceedings Article
Monolithic integrated InP distributed bragg reflector (DBR) lasers on (001) silicon
Bin Tian,Zhechao Wang,Marianna Pantouvaki,W Guo,Philippe Absil,J. Van Campenhout,C Merckling,Dries Van Thourhout +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the InP waveguides were selectively grown inside narrow trenches defined by a Shallow-Trench-Isolation (STI) method and V-groove etching.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
An ultra-short InP nanowire laser monolithic integrated on (001) silicon substrate
Zhechao Wang,Bin Tian,Mohan Paladugu,Marianna Pantouvaki,Clement Merckling,W Guo,Johan Dekoster,Matty Caymax,Joris Van Campenhout,Philippe Absil,Dries Van Thourhout +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the first room-temperature operation of an ultra-short InP nanowire laser that is epitaxially grown on an exactly oriented silicon substrate is presented, where the sub-micron sized laser cavity largely enhances the interaction of the lasing mode with the gain medium.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Ka-to-l-band frequency down-conversion using a micro-photonic III-V-on-silicon mode-locked laser and Mach-Zehnder modulator
TL;DR: In this paper, microwave photonics emerges to be a promising and low-cost alternative for RF frequency down-conversion in communication satellites, while the available high-end microwave electronic mixers and circuitry are bulky, heavy, expensive and sensitive to electromagnetic interference (EMI).
