We propose a novel silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wavelength diplexer design based on an adiabatic bent taper and an unconventional multimode waveguide. The geometry of the device is optimized using particle swarm optimization (PSO). The device has an ultra-short length of 15 μm. Simulated insertion loss at peak wavelength is less than 0.25 dB with 1-dB bandwidth around 100 nm for both O band and C band. The device is fabrication tolerant as demonstrated by simulated yield estimates. The reported design targets 1310 and 1550 nm as peak wavelengths; the design methodology is easily applicable to other wavelengths of interest.

January 2025

State Key Discipline Laboratory of Wide Bandgap Semiconductor Technology, School of Microelectronics, Xidian University, Xi'an 710071, China.

In this paper, a novel p-type junctionless field effect transistor (PJLFET) based on a partially depleted silicon-on-insulator (PD-SOI) is proposed and investigated. The novel PJLFET integrates a buried N+-doped layer under the channel to enable the device to be turned off, leading to a special work mechanism and optimized performance. Simulation results show that the proposed PJLFET demonstrates an I/I ratio of more than seven orders of magnitude, with I reaching up to 2.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers are focusing on manipulating elastic waves in lower-dimensional mechanical metamaterials to design miniaturized elastic devices, but controlling these waves in higher dimensions is challenging.
  • This study introduces a structural parameter to explore on-chip Weyl physics in a silicon-on-insulator system, creating an in-plane pseudomagnetic field that facilitates robust energy transport through chiral Landau levels.
  • Unique boundary states are observed near the corners, differing from traditional topological states, and the use of synthetic dimensions allows for advanced multidimensional elastic wave manipulation and exploration of higher-dimensional physics on integrated platforms.

As a novel method for solid-state light detection and ranging (LiDAR), optical phased arrays (OPAs) cater to the growing market requirement for mass-produced chip-scale beam steering devices. Waveguide grating antennas (WGAs) with low loss, high efficiency and large emitting aperture are strongly desirable to achieve low beam divergence and high resolution for OPAs. In this paper, we report two kinds of silicon ridge-waveguide-based WGAs with ultra-sharp instantaneous field-of-view (IFOV) for LiDAR applications.

Analog optical computing based on Fourier optics has attracted ever-growing attention, offering unprecedented low power consumption and high parallelism computation at the speed of light. Typically, classical optical 4F systems have been widely employed as one of the most common approaches for analog optical computing. However, most existing schemes replicate the original architecture relying on two Fourier transforms and one spatial-frequency filtering, resulting in bulky size and complex structure.
