Abstract:Conventional slot waveguides (CSWs) consisting of an isotropic low-index material sandwiched by two high-index silicon wires have been extensively used in functional photonic devices, including chemical sensing, optical modulating, and all-optical signal processing, due to its significantly enhanced electric field perpendicular to the interfaces in the slot layer. However, there are two drawbacks to be improved if the CSWs are used for signal transmission in photonic integrated circuits, including the crosstal… Show more
