High efficiency four wave mixing and optical bistability in amorphous silicon carbide ring resonators

We demonstrate high efficiency wavelength conversion via four wave mixing in amorphous silicon carbide ring resonators with a loaded quality factor of 70 000. Owing to the high quality factor and high nonlinearity of amorphous silicon carbide, −21 dB conversion efficiency is achieved with 15 mW pump...
