Abstract:We numerically analyze the characteristics of a mid-infrared continuous-wave (CW) Raman laser in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) photonics circuits including standing-cavity and ring resonator configurations, which are pumped by lasers at 2 µm. The dependence of cascaded Raman laser performance on the cavity length, effective free carrier lifetime, and the power transmission is investigated for the optimization of CW Raman silicon standing-cavity lasers. In addition, the mid-infrared Raman laser in the ring resonat… Show more
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.
