Nonlinear phase shift measurement by heterodyne detection in waveguides optics
2022
Nonlinear optics has been a productive field of research and investigation for a few decades now, but the rapid progression of photonic integration platforms in recent years has opened up a whole new range of applications. On-chip integration of effective saturable absorbers and secondary sources including Brillouin laser, supercontinua, or frequency combs are few examples of the very wide possibilities offered by nonlinear nanophotonics. In this context, materials with large third-order optical nonlinearities become highly sought after, as they enable the development of nonlinear functionalities at low input powers. Given a large number of potential candidates as material for nonlinear nan…
Fabrication and characterization of thermo-plasmonic routers for telecom applications
2013
The Dielectric Loaded Surface Plasmon Polariton Waveguides (DLSPPWs) have recently emerged as a possible solution to carry both optical and electrical signals on- chip. However, in the particular context of optical interconnects, advanced functionalities such as filtering, switching, and routing are required in order to replace in the future the equivalent electronic components which are too much power consumer and also to reduce their footprints. After presenting the interest and limitation of the leakage radiation microscopy method used all along this work, we show several active devices using thermo-sensitive polymers as the dielectric load driven electrically by Joule heating. Then we d…
