Title: Silicon Core Fibres: From Fabrication to Applications | |
| Session Abstract | |
|
Abstract: Silicon core fibres are attracting increased interest as a means to exploit the excellent optical and optoelectronic functionality of the semiconductor material directly within the fibre geometry. Compared to their planar counterparts, this new class of waveguide retains many advantageous properties of the fibre platforms such as flexibility, cylindrical symmetry, and long waveguide lengths. Furthermore, owing to the robust glass cladding it is also possible to employ standard fibre post-processing procedures to tailor the waveguide dimensions and reduce the optical losses over a broad wavelength range. In this tutorial, I review efforts regarding the design, fabrication and optimization of the silicon fibres and outline their potential for applications in areas such as solar harvesting, wearable sensors, and nonlinear signal processing. | |
