Abstract :
Modelling results are described that deal with the coupling of excitons in colloidal nanocrystals to silicon-based photonic crystal microcavities, and to the design of structures that couple the microcavities to ridge waveguides and input/output gratings that are realized on 200 mm diameter silicon-on-insulator wafers.
