Telecom to mid-infrared supercontinuum generation in a silicon germanium waveguide
2015
We report the first demonstration of broadband supercontinuum generation in silicon-germanium waveguides. Upon propagation of ultra-short femtosecond pulses in a 3-cm-long waveguide, the broadening extended from 1.455µm to 2.788µm (at the −30-dB point).
Polarization insensitive wavelength conversion of 40 Gb/s DPSK signals in a silicon germanium waveguide
2015
We demonstrate polarization insensitive FWM-based wavelength conversion of 40Gb/s DPSK signals in a SiGe waveguide, with 0.42-dB polarization-dependent loss. A 1.5-dB Dower nenaltv was measured at a BER of 10−9.
Broadband telecom to mid-infrared supercontinuum generation in a dispersion-engineered silicon germanium waveguide.
2015
We demonstrate broadband supercontinuum generation (SCG) in a dispersion-engineered silicon-germanium waveguide. The 3 cm long waveguide is pumped by femtosecond pulses at 2.4 μm, and the generated supercontinuum extends from 1.45 to 2.79 μm (at the −30 dB point). The broadening is mainly driven by the generation of a dispersive wave in the 1.5–1.8 μm region and soliton fission. The SCG was modeled numerically, and excellent agreement with the experimental results was obtained.
