We report a large group velocity dispersion of hybrid modes in a LiNbO3-oninsulator multimode rib waveguide. A peak dispersion of ±49000 ps/(nm.km) is obtained in the mode hybridization region between TE 00 and TM 10 modes with a full width at half maximum of 10 nm. Dispersion for hybrid modes is tunable around ±15000 ps/(nm.km), ±22000 ps/(nm.km), and ±49000 ps/(nm.km) occurring at wavelengths of 1272, 1372, and 1496 nm, respectively, in the telecommunication band. In the wavelength range from 1530 to 1600 nm, the proposed rib waveguide is free of hybrid modes. In this region, the waveguide exhibits a flat dispersion profile for all eight guided modes with a maximum <1000 ps/(nm.km).
We report the simulation and analytical results obtained for homogenous or bulk sensing of protein on Siliconon-insulator strip waveguide based microring resonator. The radii of the rings considered are 5 μm and 20 μm; the waveguide dimensions are 300 × 300 nm. A gap of (i) 200 nm and (ii) 300 nm exists between the ring and the bus waveguide. The biomaterial is uniformly distributed over a thickness which exceeds the evanescent field penetration depth of 150 nm. The sensitivities of the resonators are 32.5 nm/RIU and 17.5 nm/RIU (RIURefractive index unit) respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
