We report on the nonlinear characterizations of the titanium dioxide micro-ring resonators (TiO MRRs). By utilizing optimized fabrication processes, high quality factors (Q∼1.4 × 10) doubling that of the previous work are achieved here for TiO MRRs with high-confinement TiO waveguides. The four-wave mixing (FWM) experiment results with low and high signal power demonstrate that, the fabricated TiO MRRs can perform broadband (∼40 nm) wavelength conversion and cascaded FWMs. These achievements pave the way for key nonlinear photonic applications with TiO waveguides and provide an efficient platform for various integrated photonic devices.

On-chip polarization control is in high demand for novel integrated photonic applications such as polarization division multiplexing and quantum communications. However, due to the sensitive scaling of the device dimension with wavelength and the visible-light absorption properties, traditional passive silicon photonic devices with asymmetric waveguide structures cannot achieve polarization control at visible wavelengths. In this paper, a new polarization-splitting mechanism based on energy distributions of the fundamental polarized modes in the r-TiO ridge waveguide is investigated.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFTitanium dioxide () microring resonators (MRRs) with high quality factors (Qs) are demonstrated by using a new, to the best of our knowledge, bottom-up fabrication method. Pattern platforms with a T-shaped cross section are first defined by etching a thin top layer of silicon nitride and a thick bottom layer of silica and partially undercutting the silica. Then, is deposited on the platforms to form the waveguides and devices.
