Abstract

An heteroepitaxial bonded III-Von Si nanopatterned waveguide is demonstrating a wavelength selective behavior thanks to a super-periodicity added to its sub-wavelength, below band-gap, structuration. Effective Medium Theory has been implemented for modal effective index determination, allowing a quick and nevertheless detailed investigation of the role of a large number of geometrical parameters. Such nanostructured waveguides offer the versatility for designing complex geometries required for hybrid advanced optical functions on silicon.
