Silicon photonic MEMS : Exploiting mechanics at the nanoscale to enhance photonic integrated circuits
- 2019

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- With the maturing and the increasing complexity of Silicon Photonics technology, novel avenues are pursued to reduce power consumption and to provide enhanced functionality: exploiting mechanical movement in advanced Silicon Photonic Integrated Circuits provides a promising path to access a strong modulation of the effective index and to low power consumption by employing mechanically stable and thus non-volatile states. In this paper, we will discuss recent achievements in the development of MEMS enabled systems in Silicon Photonics and outline the roadmap towards reconfigurable general Photonic Integrated Circuits.

Towards Low-Power Reconfigurable Photonic ICs Based on MEMS Technology
- 2018
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- With the progress and industrialization of photonic integrated circuits (PIC) in the past few decades, there is a strong urge towards design and prototyping in a fast, low-cost and reliable manner. In electronics, this demand is met through field programmable gate arrays (FPGA). In the Horizon 2020 MORPHIC (MEMS-based zerO-power Reconfigurable Photonic ICs) project, we are developing a reconfigurable PIC platform to address this demand in the field of photonics and to facilitate the path from idea towards realization for PIC designers and manufacturers.

Ingår i: 2021 IEEE Photonics Conference, IPC 2021 - Proceedings. - : Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Recent advances in integration of Nano-Opto-Electromechanical Systems in Silicon Photonics enable fundamental photonic operations such as switching, phase shifting or power equalization on-chip. The unique combination of high optical efficiency, low electric power consumption and compact footprint, provides outstanding opportunities in scalability to large-scale photonic integrated circuits.
