Silicon-based optoelectronics (SBO), combining the advantages of both microelectronics and optoelectronics, has entered a period of rapid development. Applications based on SBO have expanded from traditional communication field to other fields such as sensing, computing, and artificial intelligence. Although the SBO technology started relatively late in China, it has developed rapidly in recent years due to continuous investment and improved industrial structure. This article first reviews the early activities, and then, summarizes the current status of SBO in China. It provides a comprehensive analysis of academic and industrial advancements in recent years and discusses future development directions and main challenges.

Silicon photonics has become one of the major technologies in this very information age. It has been intensively pursued by researchers and entrepreneurs all over the world in recent years. Achieving the large scale silicon photonic integration, particularly monolithic integration, is the final goal so that high density data communication will become much cheaper, more reliable, and less energy consuming. Comparing with the developed countries, China may need to invest more to develop top down nanoscale integration capability (more on processing technology) to sustain the development in silicon photonics and to elevate its own industry structure.

“…The silicon photonic integrated circuits have rapid development as a promising technology to apply in optical communication, computing and sensing fields in recent years [1][2][3]. Due to the high thermo-optic (TO) coefficient of silicon (1.86×10 -4 /K) [4], the silicon photonic devices is highly sensitive to ambient temperature fluctuations, and thermally stable optical waveguide can not be achieved under normal circumstances.…”

A novel CMOS-compatible thermal compensator which can compensate most of silicon photonic integrated devices with the positive thermal-optical effect was demonstrated using a modified asymmetric Mach-Zender-Interferometer. Furthermore, an athermal waveguide was designed using the demonstrated thermal compensator to compensate the conventional waveguide with the positive thermal-optical effect. Based on simulations, the temperature dependence of the athermal compensated waveguide is stable within the temperature range of 25-52℃, and the temperature range can be largely extended through optimizing the structure of the thermal compensator. In addition, the different length of conventional waveguide can be compensated by adjusting some parameters.
