Soliton-induced mid-infrared dispersive wave in horizontally-slotted Si3N4 waveguide
IEEE Access(2022)
摘要
The flexibility of producing two dispersive waves (DWs) in silicon nitride (Si3N4) slot waveguide is demonstrated, by tailoring the slot features and the corresponding phase-matching condition. DWs are generated at visible and mid-infrared (mid-IR) wavelength regions, respectively. We obtain a broadband low normal dispersion region from 2 to 5.25 μm, which offers particular advantages for DW generation at mid-IR wavelength region. The long-wave dispersive wave (LWDW) can cover beyond 4 μm. This is the first time to illustrate the freedom of Si3N4 slot waveguide for DWs generation ever reported. A broadband spectrum can be extended from 0.5 to 4.5 μm at -30 dB level by launching a 1-kW 1550-nm hyperbolic secant input pump pulse to a 1-cm proposed waveguide. The newly formed spectrum has a high degree of coherence. This approach provides more flexibility for frequency conversion, and has the advantages for biophotonics, optical sensing, chip-integrated spectroscopy, health and environmental monitoring.
