We present fully air clad suspended-silicon waveguides for efficient nonlinear interactions limited only by the silicon transparency. Novel fork-shaped couplers
Patent Description A novel architecture for optical frequency conversion in a waveguide is proposed, which increases the conversion efficiency compared to existing architectures. It consists of several straight sections of phase-matched nonlinear optical waveguides linked by dispersion-engineered
