Abstract
Integrated silicon photonics is recognized as a potential candidate to achieve on-chip optical interconnects. Compared with other optical microcavities, photonic crystal nanobeam cavity (PCNC) has emerged as a promising platform for optical filtering, lasering, optical modulation/switching and sensing, due to their attractive properties of ultra-high Q/V and ultra-compact footprints. While numerous PCNCs focus on the characterizes of single air or dielectric mode, the cavity confining both air and dielectric modes has not yet been fully exploited. Here, we demonstrate experimentally the coupling characterizes of spatial modes in PCNC with two side coupling configurations. Experimental results show that arc waveguide side coupling PCNC supporting both air and dielectric modes with low insertion loss and high quality factors are achieved, compared with in-line coupling and parallel waveguide side coupling.
