A mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectrometer for label-free on-chip chemical sensing was developed
using an engineered nanofluidic channel consisting of a Si-liquid-Si slot-structure. Utilizing …

Silicon-based light sources, including light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes (LDs)
for information transmission, are urgently needed for developing monolithic integrated …

In this paper, we report on the first attempt to design, fabricate, and test an on-chip optical
amplifier which works at 1540 nm and can be electrically driven. It is based on an …

Polycrystalline erbium-doped Y3 (AlxGa1− x) 5O12 (Er-YAGG) nanofilms with various Al/Ga
compositions are deposited on silicon using atomic layer deposition followed by annealing …

Abstract Design of an on-chip silicon Raman laser is proposed based on a slotted photonic
crystal nanocavity. The slot has been considered to be filled with the silicon nanocrystal …

With the development of nanomanufacturing methods, the manipulation of photons down to
the nanoscale in silicon integrated optical chips has become a feasible and promising …

Er clustering plays a major role in hindering sufficient optical gain in Er-doped Si materials.
For porous Si, the long-standing failure to govern the clustering has been attributed to …

We report the observation of strongly confined plasmon modes in hybridized metal-dielectric
slot waveguides, which consist of semiconductor–insulator–semiconductor nanostructures …

This work presents the charge transport and electroluminescent properties of silicon rich
oxide (SRO) films with~ 41 at% silicon content and different thicknesses (t SRO= 24, 53 and …
