Lasers and optical amplifiers based on solution-processable materials have been long-
desired devices for their compatibility with virtually any substrate, scalability, and ease of …

Phthalocyanines (Pcs) are intensely coloured, robust macrocycles that possess admirable
chemical, thermal and photo-stability as a result of its extensive π-network. The Pc family …

Silicon (Si) photonics is a disruptive technology on the fast track to revolutionise integrated
photonics. An indispensable branch thereof, heterogeneous Si integration, has also evolved …

An overview is presented of the current state‐of‐the‐art in silicon nanophotonic ring
resonators. Basic theory of ring resonators is discussed, and applied to the peculiarities of …

Realizing efficient on-chip light sources has long been the “holy-grail” for Si-photonics
research. Several important breakthroughs were made in this field in the past few years. In …

This book sets out to build bridges between the domains of photonic device physics and
neural networks, providing a comprehensive overview of the emerging field of" …

Compound semiconductors like gallium arsenide (GaAs) provide advantages over silicon for
many applications, owing to their direct bandgaps and high electron mobilities. Examples …

Monolithic integration of III-V semiconductor devices on Silicon (Si) has long been of great
interest in photonic integrated circuits (PICs), as well as traditional integrated circuits (ICs) …

Monolithic integration of III-V compound semiconductors on silicon is highly sought after for
high-speed, low-power-consumption silicon photonics and low-cost, light-weight …

Abstract Development of Si photonic integrated circuits (PICs) has been impeded due to lack
of efficient Si-based light-emitting sources. Because of their indirect bandgap, bulk Ge and …
