Integrated circuit (IC) industry has fully considered the fact that the Moore's Law is slowing
down or ending. Alternative solutions are highly and urgently desired to break the physical …

Rapid advances in high‐resolution chip lithography have accelerated nanophotonic device
development on the silicon‐on‐insulator (SOI) platform. The ability to create sub …

This paper reports theoretical designs and simulations of electrooptical 2× 2 switches and
1× 1 loss modulators based upon GST-embedded SOI channel waveguides. It is assumed …

In this paper, an electro-optical 4-to-2 encoder based on a photonic crystal is presented. The
structure is composed of four silicon waveguides, four photonic crystal structures including …

We propose and numerically study an on-chip graphene-silicon hybrid electro-optic (EO)
modulator operating at the telecommunication band, which is implemented by a compact 1D …

Due to the projected saturation of Moore's law, as well as the drastically increasing trend of
bandwidth with lower power consumption, silicon photonics has emerged as one of the most …

We present a novel optical sensor based on the design of ultrahigh-Q and low-mode-volume
1-D single photonic crystal (PhC) slot nanobeam cavity (SNC) in which the air-hole radius is …

On-chip spectrometers are key components in many spectral sensing applications owing to
their unique advantages in size and in situ detection. In this work, we propose and …

It is broadly observed that graphene oxide (GO) films appear transparent with a thickness of
about several nanometers, whereas they appear dark brown or almost black with thickness …

The bandwidth and energy demands of neural networks has spurred tremendous interest in
develo** novel neuromorphic hardware, including photonic integrated circuits. Although …
