“…Finally, while telecommunication and interconnects are major drivers in the development of integrated photonics, photonic integration is also recognized as important for potential solutions in other fields, such as distributed sensor networks, disposable medical diagnostic chips, and bio-imaging systems. [5,6] Hybrid silicon platforms that heterogeneously integrate an SOI platform with other functional materials (such as ger-manium and III/V semiconductors) provide new opportunities for applying integrated photonics. For instance, heterogeneous integration of narrow bandgap indium-phosphide can make an SOI platform outperform traditional silicon devices -enabling more efficient modulators, faster photo-detectors, on-chip laser diodes, and semiconductor-based optical amplifiers.…”

Graphene and other two-dimensional materials have recently emerged as promising candidates for next-generation, high-performance photonics. In this paper, the progress of research into photodetectors and other electro-optical devices based on graphene integrated silicon photonics is briefly reviewed. We discuss the performance metrics, photo-response mechanisms, and experimental results of the latest graphene photodetectors integrated with silicon photonics. We also lay out the unavoidable performance trade-offs in meeting the requirements of various applications. In addition, we describe other opto-electronic devices based on this idea. Integrating two-dimensional materials with a silicon platform provides new opportunities in advanced integrated photonics.

“…Fluorescence demands novel integration of both an excitation source and a detector. Two ways are adopted towards this approach: one is to make a handheld device into which a sample on a disposable slide or microfluidic chip is inserted [ 5 ]; the second is to integrate totally the excitation source and detector onto the disposable chip using mass cheap technologies such as those based on inkjet deposition [ 6 ].…”

The blue OLED emission from a mobile phone was characterised, revealing a sharp emission band centred at λ = 445 nm with a 3dB bandwidth Δλ ∼ 20 nm. It was used to excite Rhodamine 123 doped within a “giant” mesostructured silica sphere during fabrication through evaporative self-assembly of silica nanoparticles. Fluorescence was able to be detected using a standard optical microscope fitted with a green transmission pass filter and cooled CCD and with 1 ms exposure time demonstrating the potential of mobile platforms as the basis for portable diagnostics in the field.

“…Silicon micrometer-scale ring/disk resonator devices that are fabricated by the mature CMOS-compatible processes have recently attracted considerable interests for optical signal processing applications on photonics chips including in nextgeneration wavelength-agile optical networks [1], as components for optical interconnects on computer chips [2][3][4], and as on-chip refractive-index-based label-free biosensors [5,6]. As an integrated narrowband optical filter, silicon microring resonator-based channel add-drop and notch filters have attained high quality factors Q ~ 10 5 [7,8].…”

We report our latest experimental and numerical work on silicon microresonator passive and electro-optic active devices. On the passive device front, we demonstrate an electrically tunable silicon microring notch filter for converting 3.6-Gbps non-return-to-zero (NRZ) data format to return-to-zero (RZ)-like data format. We show that the converted RZ-like data quality highly depends on the notch filter extinction ratios. On the active device front, we demonstrate a silicon microring modulator using a double-coupled U-bend waveguide as a feedback and a pair of laterally integrated injectiontype p-i-n diodes for bias/signal modulation. We show that the microring modulator extinction ratios are electrically controlled by applying a DC-bias across either the feedback-waveguide or the microring while applying a modulation signal across the other p-i-n diode. We also propose silicon microdisk modulators with selectively integrated depletiontype Schottky diodes. Our numerical simulations suggest that the microdisk structures can be advantageous compared with microring structures. We show that electrical rise time on the order of a few ps is feasible using microdisks. We also allude to on-going work on extending the microresonator devices discussed here to building functional silicon optoelectronics integrated circuits.Keywords: silicon microring, silicon microdisk, silicon microresonators, free-carrier plasma dispersion, silicon photonics, silicon optoelectronics integrated circuits INTRODUCTIONSilicon micrometer-scale ring/disk resonator devices that are fabricated by the mature CMOS-compatible processes have recently attracted considerable interests for optical signal processing applications on photonics chips including in nextgeneration wavelength-agile optical networks [1], as components for optical interconnects on computer chips [2-4], and as on-chip refractive-index-based label-free biosensors [5,6]. As an integrated narrowband optical filter, silicon microring resonator-based channel add-drop and notch filters have attained high quality factors Q ~ 10 5 [7,8]. Majority of the demonstrated silicon microresonators are based on conventional circular/racetrack microring [7-11] and microdisk [12, 13] resonators, with alternative devices from our research group using polygonal-shaped [14-17] and spiral-shaped [18, 19] microdisk resonators. Various silicon microresonator-based switches and modulators using thermooptical [20], mechanical [21], optical [22], and electrooptical (EO) [23-25] mechanisms have been demonstrated. Among these microresonator tuning methods, EO tuning by means of the well-understood free-carrier plasma dispersion effect in silicon [26] offers an appealing combination of beyond-GHz-speed switching, as well as the possibility of electronic control using CMOS circuits on the silicon substrate. Specifically, Xu et al. in their pioneering work [23] demonstrated GHz-speed silicon microring modulators with laterally integrated injection-type p-i-n diodes. Owing to the high-Q resonance sensitivity to minu...
