Analytical energy and bandwidth model for compact silicon photonic microdisk resonators.

Conference ·
OSTI ID:952357

Microdisk resonators for use as low energy modulators in telecom and datacom applications have been fabricated using vertical PN junctions which operate in reverse bias. These devices have demonstrated the lowest energy/bit thus far. In this paper we show that the reverse biased PN junction diodes follow the analytical depletion approximation based on numerical simulation.
