Abstract
This paper demonstrates the use of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in silicon to create optical amplification in SOI waveguides. Advantages of this approach include its tunability and the fact that it does not necessitate special impurities or nanostructures. Moreover, SRS is also a candidate for realization of lasers on silicon.
