"Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) has become an attractive material system for integrated photonic components due to its potential for integration of optical devices

Silicon photonics is beginning to play an important role in driving innovations in communication and computation for an increasing number of applications, from

This book provides the first comprehensive, up-to-date and self-contained introduction to the emergent field of Programmable Integrated Photonics (PIP). It cove

In this book, the first high-speed silicon-organic hybrid (SOH) modulator is demonstrated by exploiting a highly-nonlinear polymer cladding and a silicon wavegu

The development of integrated silicon photonic circuits has recently been driven by the Internet and the push for high bandwidth as well as the need to reduce p
