Active nanophotonics technology (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Composite metal-dielectric-semiconductor nanostructures are used to design, fabricate and test nanoscale resonators and nanolasers that utilize various modes confined in all three dimensions. Integration with silicon photonics material platform is al... Read More about Active nanophotonics technology.

Novel transmission lines for Si MZI modulators (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We present MZI Silicon Photonics modulators with an advanced transmission line design which overcomes bandwidth limitations arising from crosstalk and improves linear losses. Push-pull optical bandwidth of 22.2 GHz with V π L=1.6 V·cm is experimental... Read More about Novel transmission lines for Si MZI modulators.

Electrically pumped metallo-dielectric pedestal nanolasers (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Electrically pumped metallo-dielectric nanolasers are demonstrated. Employing a two-step InP chemical etching, we obtain straight pedestal sidewalls and preferentially reduce the diameter of the n-doped InP cladding more than the p-doped one for opti...

Purcell effect in sub-wavelength semiconductor lasers (2013)
Journal Article
Gu, Q., Slutsky, B., Vallini, F., Smalley, J., Nezhad, M., Frateschi, N., & Fainman, Y. (2013). Purcell effect in sub-wavelength semiconductor lasers. Optics Express, 21(13), 15603-15617. https://doi.org/10.1364/OE.21.015603

We present a formal treatment of the modification of spontaneous emission rate by a cavity (Purcell effect) in sub-wavelength semiconductor lasers. To explicitly express the assumptions upon which our formalism builds, we summarize the results of non... Read More about Purcell effect in sub-wavelength semiconductor lasers.
