PECASE: New Directions for Silicon Integrated Optics

Abstract

This progress report summarizes achievements in Professor Hochberg's research group at the University of Delaware in the development of three new application areas for silicon photonics. This work has been supported by the AFOSR PECASE award since February 2010. The research goals including demonstrating radically new classes of nonlinear optical devices in the silicon system, demonstrating mid-infrared integrated optics in silicon and pursuing new investigations into using silicon resonators as high sensitivity biosensors will be discussed. The results of the research including scientific publications and patents are included in this report. AFOSR support has been acknowledged in all these publications and presentations.
