Abstract:Silicon nitride (Si3N4) waveguides have significant applications in silicon photonics because of their low transmission loss, large transparent band range, and compatibility with CMOS processes. However, there is no electro-optic (EO) effect in Si3N4 waveguide and consequently it lacks active EO-tuning capacity. To activate Si3N4 waveguide, we propose the hybrid integration of EO polymer as cladding on Si3N4 waveguide. The waveguide is rationally designed to optimize the overlap factor of optical and electric … Show more
