Slow light engineering in a photonic crystal slab waveguide through optofluidic infiltration and geometric modulation

Journal Article Khodamohammadi, A., E-mail: s-akhodamohammadi@gmail.com ; Khoshsima, H. ; Fallahi, V. - Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics

In this paper, a new type of flat-band slow light structure with high group index (n{sub g}) and large normalized delay-bandwidth product (NDBP) in a silicon on insulator (SOI) based photonic crystal (PC) slab waveguide with a triangular lattice of circular holes is demonstrated. The dispersion engineering is performed by infiltrating optical fluids with different refractive indices n{sub f} in the first row and shifting the second row of air holes adjacent to the PC waveguide (PCW) in the longitudinal direction. In the optimized case, a high NDBP of 0.32 with a group index of 54.55 and a bandwidth ofmore »« less

Enhanced four-wave mixing in graphene-silicon slow-light photonic crystal waveguides

Journal Article Zhou, Hao ; Optical Nanostructures Laboratory, Columbia University, New York, New York 10027 ; Gu, Tingyi ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

We demonstrate the enhanced four-wave mixing of monolayer graphene on slow-light silicon photonic crystal waveguides. 200-μm interaction length, a four-wave mixing conversion efficiency of −23 dB is achieved in the graphene-silicon slow-light hybrid, with an enhanced 3-dB conversion bandwidth of about 17 nm. Our measurements match well with nonlinear coupled-mode theory simulations based on the measured waveguide dispersion, and provide an effective way for all-optical signal processing in chip-scale integrated optics.

Enhanced photoresponsivity in graphene-silicon slow-light photonic crystal waveguides

Journal Article Zhou, Hao ; Optical Nanostructures Laboratory, Columbia University, New York, New York 10027 ; Gu, Tingyi ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

We demonstrate the enhanced fast photoresponsivity in graphene hybrid structures by combining the ultrafast dynamics of graphene with improved light-matter interactions in slow-light photonic crystal waveguides. With a 200 μm interaction length, a 0.8 mA/W photoresponsivity is achieved in a graphene-silicon Schottky-like photodetector, with an operating bandwidth in excess of 5 GHz and wavelength range at least from 1480 nm to 1580 nm. Fourfold enhancement of the photocurrent is observed in the slow light region, compared to the wavelength far from the photonic crystal bandedge, for a chip-scale broadband fast photodetector.

Huge enhancement of backward second-harmonic generation with slow light in photonic crystals

Journal Article Iliew, Rumen ; Institute of Condensed Matter Theory and Solid State Optics, Friedrich-Schiller-Universitaet Jena, Max-Wien-Platz 1, 07743 Jena ; Etrich, Christoph ; ... - Physical Review. A

We study theoretically forward and backward second-harmonic generation in a two-dimensional photonic crystal structure made of lithium niobate. The aim of this article is twofold: First, we propose a reliable modal algorithm for describing the light propagation taking into account the vectorial character of the interacting fields as well as the tensorial character of the nonlinearity and verify it by means of the nonlinear finite-difference time-domain method. Second, we propose a photonic crystal where we obtain a giant efficiency increase for backward second-harmonic generation with slow light.

Slow light enhanced singlet exciton fission solar cells with a 126% yield of electrons per photon

Journal Article Thompson, Nicholas J. ; Congreve, Daniel N. ; Baldo, Marc A., E-mail: vmenon@qc.cuny.edu, E-mail: baldo@mit.edu ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

Singlet exciton fission generates two triplet excitons per absorbed photon. It promises to increase the power extracted from sunlight without increasing the number of photovoltaic junctions in a solar cell. We demonstrate solar cells with an external quantum efficiency of 126% by enhancing absorption in thin films of the singlet exciton fission material pentacene. The device structure exploits the long photon dwell time at the band edge of a distributed Bragg reflector to achieve enhancement over a broad range of angles. Measuring the reflected light from the solar cell establishes a lower bound of 137% for the internal quantum efficiency.
