Self-phase modulation in integrated cadmium telluride polycrystalline waveguide
Fig. 1. Design and simulation of the on-chip integrated CdTe waveguide. (a) The 3D structure diagram of the CdTe/CdS/Si waveguide. The width (WCdTe), height (HCdTe), and thickness (HCdS) of the CdTe waveguide are 20 µm, 8 µm, and 5 µm, respectively; (b) The propagation loss caused by the CdS layers with different thickness (3 µm, 5 µm, 10 µm, and 15 µm); (c) Total dispersion and mode confinement ratio of the TE mode in CdTe with 20 µm height and 8 µm width; (d) The SCG in the waveguide pumped with 5.5 µm, 15 kW pulse; (e) and (f) are the time-domain pulse and frequency-domain spectral evolution diagrams of the pulse propagated in a 1 cm-long CdTe waveguide, respectively
Fig. 2. Waveguide fabrication flow chart and scanning electron microscope images. (a) The waveguide fabrication flow chart; (b) The waveguide surface topography.
