PSA-based phase regeneration of DPSK signals in a silicon germanium waveguide
2015
We demonstrate a polarization-assisted PSA-based phase regenerator in a passive low-birefringence SiGe waveguide at low CW pump power. A PSER of 28.6-dB enables a six-fold reduction in phase-error and BER improvement of approximately 2-dB in the regenerated signal.
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).

2015
A binary step-like phase response and phase-sensitive extinction ratio in excess of 28dB under CW pump operation was demonstrated in a 20mm-long low birefringence SiGe waveguide, using a polarization-assisted phase sensitive amplifier scheme.

2018
We report the transmission of a 10 Gbps telecommunication signal at 2 μm in waveguides made of three different materials: Si, SiGe and TiO2. Bit error rates below 10−9 can be achieved after transmission in the devices with subwavelength dimensions.

2017
International audience; We demonstrate an error-free transmission of 10-Gbit/s optical signals along a SiGe waveguide at a wavelength of 1.98 μm. Bit error rate measurements confirm the absence of penalty during the transmission through a 2.5-cm long waveguide having a width of 2.2 μm.

This talk presents recent progress in optical signal processing based on compact waveguides fabricated mainly using silicon germanium alloys. Applications include supercontinuum generation, wavelength conversion and signal regeneration.
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.
Polarization Insensitive Wavelength Conversion in a Low-Birefringence SiGe Waveguide
2016
We report the first demonstration of a single-pass dual-orthogonal-pump four-wave mixing-based wavelength conversion scheme in a silicon-based waveguide. The silicon germanium waveguide used was designed to exhibit strong TE/TM mode similarity across a broad wavelength range as well as a large nonlinear coefficient. A polarization-dependent loss of just 0.42 dB was measured, and the conversion of 40-Gb/s differential phase-shift keying signals was demonstrated with 1.5-dB power penalty at a bit error ratio of $10^{-9}$ .
