Article Synopsis
- Photonic crystal nanocavities with small modal volumes and high Q factors have become a significant research focus in photonics recently.
- A study shows that cleaning the bottom side of these nanocavities is crucial for enhancing Q factors, aiming for values beyond ten million.
- Through experimental techniques like thermal oxidation and oxide removal on silicon-on-insulator substrates, researchers achieved an unprecedented Q factor of over eleven million, which has implications for Si nanophotonic devices and related technologies.
