High gain optical parametric amplification in ultra-silicon-rich nitride (USRN) waveguides

© 2018 SPIE. Optical parametric amplifiers rely on the high Kerr nonlinearities and low two-photon absorption (TPA) to achieve large optical amplification. The high Kerr nonlinearity enables efficient energy transfer from the optical pump to the signal. On the other hand, the TPA process competes wi...
