Reconfigurability of photonic integrated circuits (PICs) has become increasingly important due to the growing demands for electronicâphotonic systems on a chip driven by emerging applications, including neuromorphic computing, quantum information, and microwave photonics. Success in these fields usually requires highly scalable photonic switching units as essential building blocks. Current photonic switches, however, mainly rely on materials with weak, volatile thermoâoptic or electroâoptic modulation effects, resulting in large footprints and high energy consumption. As a promising alternative, chalcogenide phaseâchange materials (PCMs) exhibit strong optical modulation in a static, selfâholding fashion, but the scalability of present PCMâintegrated photonic applications is still limited by the poor optical or electrical actuation approaches. Here, with phase transitions actuated by in situ silicon PIN diode heaters, scalable nonvolatile electrically reconfigurable photonic switches using PCMâclad silicon waveguides and microring resonators are demonstrated. As a result, intrinsically compact and energyâefficient switching units operated with low driving voltages, nearâzero additional loss, and reversible switching with high endurance are obtained in a complementary metalâoxideâsemiconductor (CMOS)âcompatible process. This work can potentially enable very largeâscale CMOSâintegrated programmable electronicâphotonic systems such as optical neural networks and generalâpurpose integrated photonic processors.
