Silicon photonics is currently a very active and progressive area of research, as silicon optical circuits have emerged as the replacement technology for copper-based circuits in communication and broadband networks. The demand for ever improving communications and computing performance continues, and this in turn means that photonic circuits are finding ever increasing application areas. This text provides an important and timely overview of the ‘hot topics’ in the field, covering the various aspects of the technology that form the research area of silicon photonics. With contributions from some of the world’s leading researchers in silicon photonics, this book collates the latest advances in the technology. Silicon Photonics: the State of the Art opens with a highly informative foreword, and continues to feature: the integrated photonic circuit; silicon photonic waveguides; photonic bandgap waveguides; mechanisms for optical modulation in silicon; silicon based light sources; optical detection technologies for silicon photonics; passive silicon photonic devices; photonic and electronic integration approaches; applications in communications and sensors. Silicon Photonics: the State of the Art covers the essential elements of the entire field that is silicon photonics and is therefore an invaluable text for photonics engineers and professionals working in the fields of optical networks, optical communications, and semiconductor electronics. It is also an informative reference for graduate students studying for PhD in fibre optics, integrated optics, optical networking, microelectronics, or telecommunications.

The growing demand for instant and reliable communication means that photonic circuits are increasingly finding applications in optical communications systems. One of the prime candidates to provide satisfactory performance at low cost in the photonic circuit is silicon. Whilst silicon photonics is less well developed as compared to some other material technologies, it is poised to make a serious impact on the telecommunications industry, as well as in many other applications, as other technologies fail to meet the yield/performance/cost trade-offs. Following a sympathetic tutorial approach, this first book on silicon photonics provides a comprehensive overview of the technology. Silicon Photonics explains the concepts of the technology, taking the reader through the introductory principles, on to more complex building blocks of the optical circuit. Starting with the basics of waveguides and the properties peculiar to silicon, the book also features: Key design issues in optical circuits. Experimental methods. Evaluation techniques. Operation of waveguide based devices. Fabrication of silicon waveguide circuits. Evaluation of silicon photonic systems. Numerous worked examples, models and case studies. Silicon Photonics is an essential tool for photonics engineers and young professionals working in the optical network, optical communications and semiconductor industries. This book is also an invaluable reference and a potential main text to senior undergraduates and postgraduate students studying fibre optics, integrated optics, or optical network technology.

Abstract: The huge increments in data traffic and communication over the past few decades have pushed the conventional electronic communication systems to their physical limits in terms of data rate, bandwidth and capacity. The continuous shrinking of feature sizes, the increase in the microelectronic integrated circuits complexity, and the increasing demand for higher speeds and data rates have all stimulated seeking new technology to replace the currently present microelectronics industry rather than improving it. Photonics is one of the most likely candidates to answer this pursuit for its compatibility with the fiber optic industry, which has shown a great success in large-scale communication since around 50 years ago. Silicon photonics, in particular, is very interesting for the scientific community for its compatibility with the foundries which are the bases for microelectronic industries around the globe. Advancements in silicon photonic would rather enable the integration of both electronic and optical system components on the same chip, which is a very important step in the transition towards all-optical on-chip systems. The huge interest in silicon photonics over the past two decades has brought forth a number of applications in various fields, such as biosensing, displays, on- and off-chip interconnection, artificial intelligence, internet of things, big data centres, and telecommunications. In practice, there are many ways of realizing and fabricating on-chip silicon waveguides. Ion exchange process is one of the most commonly used techniques in fabricating glass waveguides as it offers ease of application, low cost, and low equipment requirements. Unfortunately, numerical constraints render the modelling of this process challenging due to the presence of computational instabilities at certain conditions. In the first part of this thesis, this issue is worked out by introducing a novel numerical model based on finite element method formulation. In the second part of the thesis, we concentrate on one of the promising applications of silicon photonics, which is the telecommunications. Optical communication systems include many components such as, light sources, photodetectors, multiplexers, filters, resonators, optical interconnects, switches, couplers, splitters, and modulators. The optical modulator is considered the most essential component in an optical communication system as it converts the incoming electric digital data into an optical data stream. Its acts as a binding link between both the optical and electronic domains on the chip. Therefore, electro-optical modulators have gained enormous attention during the past few years. Weak electro-optical effects in intrinsic silicon have stimulated the search for novel materials to be responsible for the modulation of the light beam. Surface plasmon polaritons, which propagate at a metal-dielectric interface, allow the confinement of light in subwavelength dimensions. However, they introduce large losses to the system. Transparent conducting oxides, especially indium tin oxide (ITO), provide metal-like response when exposed to a gating voltage while maintaining lower losses than noble metals. In the second part of the thesis, we propose two novel electro-optical on-chip integrated modulators based on the utilization of ITO as the active material.

Silicon photonics has evolved rapidly as a research topic with enormous application potential. The high refractive index contrast of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) shows great promise for submicron waveguide structures suited for integration on the chip scale in the near-infrared region. Ge- and GeSn-Si heterostructures with different elastic strain levels already provide expansion of the spectral range, high-speed operation, efficient modulation and switching of optical signals, and enhanced light emission and lasing. This book focuses on the integration of heterostructure devices with silicon photonics. The authors have attempted to merge a concise treatment of classical silicon photonics with a description of principles, prospects, challenges, and technical solution paths of adding silicon-based heterostructures. The book discusses the basics of heterostructure-based silicon photonics, system layouts, and key device components, keeping in mind the application background. Special focus is placed on SOI-based waveguide configurations and Ge- and GeSn-Si heterostructure devices for light detection, modulation, and light emission and lasing. The book also provides an overview of the technological and materials science challenges connected with integration on silicon. The first half of the book is mainly for readers who are interested in the topic because of its increasing importance in different fields, while the latter half covers different device structures for light emission, detection, modulation, extension of the wavelength beyond 1.6 μm, and lasing, as well as future challenges.
