Abstract :
Several silicon photonic waveguide geometries for both near- and mid-infrared wavelength regions are presented. These waveguides are basic building blocks of more complex photonic circuits such as modulators, detectors, filters, couplers or light sources. In this paper, the application of waveguide structures in both passive and active devices is given.
