Abstract :
Silicon nanophotonics is considered a key enabler of future photonic-electronic information processing systems. Driven by substantial research investments, photonic integration on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates has reached a degree of maturity that already permits industrial adoption. Silicon-organic hybrid integration (SOH) is a viable extension of the SOI material system for efficient electro-optic modulation and ultrafast all-optical signal processing.
