Graphene–silicon phase modulators with gigahertz bandwidth (2017, background): “…a result, there is a tradeoﬀ between optical loss, V π L and footprint, since higher free carriers densities with stronger plasma dispersion come at the expense of increased optical absorption[12] or limited dynamic range, i.e. the maximum intensity or phase change for a given driving voltage[12].”
Topology Optimization of Photonic and Phononic Crystals and Metamaterials: A Review (2019, background): “Photonic devices are traditionally designed by starting with an analytically designed structure and hand-tuning a few parameters.[132] By searching the full design space, topology optimization is able to produce photonic structures and devices with better performance and characteristics of interest ”
Inverse design and demonstration of a compact and broadband on-chip wavelength demultiplexer (2015, background): “However, only a small library of semi-analytically designed devices are currently known [4].”
Metamaterial-inspired silicon nanophotonics (2017, background): “Even χ(2) processes, such as second-harmonic generation, could be enhanced in silicon Mie resonators when the inversion symmetry”
