Piezoelectric Tuning of a Suspended Nitride Ring Resonator
02:00-02:15
2017-10-02 02:00 2017-10-02 02:15 America/Denver Piezoelectric Tuning of a Suspended Nitride Ring Resonator A piezoelectric thin film deposited on a suspended silicon nitride-based waveguide provides tuning via mechanical deformation. The fabricated ring resonator device is capable of tuning across a full FSR with under 16 V applied bias Hilton Santa Fe Historic Plaza Salon VI

Tunable optical delay line based on Si3N4 ring resonators
02:15-02:30
2017-10-02 02:15 2017-10-02 02:30 America/Denver Tunable optical delay line based on Si3N4 ring resonators We demonstrate a tunable optical time delay line based on Si3N4 ring resonators. A continuously tunable 1.4 ns optical delay is achieved with over 3.5 GHz bandwidth. The maximum tunable delay can be easily extended to several nanoseconds by modifying the ring coupler κ.

Heterogeneous MOS microring resonators
02:30-02:45
2017-10-02 02:30 2017-10-02 02:45 America/Denver Heterogeneous MOS microring resonators We demonstrate a heterogeneous microring resonator with integrated InP-dielectric-Si metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) capacitor by high-k dielectric wafer bonding. HfO2 is used for its extremely high k value (20-30) and enables optical tuning range more than twice better than Al2O3 based MOS devices. Hilton Santa Fe Historic Plaza Salon VI
