[EN] We discuss theoretically the simultaneous existence of phoxonic, i.e., dual phononic and photonic, band gaps in a periodic silicon strip waveguide. The unit-cell of this one-dimensional waveguide contains a hole in ...

[EN] We report experimental evidence of light guiding at telecommunication wavelengths along line-defect honeycomb-lattice photonic crystal waveguides created in suspended silicon slabs. Numerical results show that the ...
[EN] The interaction of light and sound waves at the micro and nanoscale has attracted considerable interest in recent years. The main reason is that this interaction is responsible for a wide variety of intriguing physical ...
[EN] The interaction between phonons and photons is investigated theoretically in a phoxonic cavity inside a
corrugated nanobeam waveguide presenting band gaps for both electromagnetic and elastic waves. The structure
is ...
[EN] Strong acousto-optic interaction in high-index waveguides and cavities generally requires the releasing of the high-index core to avoid mechanical leakage into the underlying low-index substrate. This complicates ...
