Title :
Nonlinear optics in crystalline and amorphous silicon-on-insulator
Abstract :
After an introduction on silicon photonics and on third-order nonlinear effects, the nonlinear properties of silicon are discussed. Then progress on nonlinear optics in silicon is reviewed both for telecom and mid IR bands.
