Slow light enhancement of nonlinear effects in engineered silicon photonic crystal waveguides

Abstract

We demonstrate enhanced nonlinear self-phase modulation through short silicon photonic crystal waveguides due to slow light using picosecond pulses. The measurements are supported by simulations, highlighting the simultaneous reinforcement of nonlinear absorption and free carriers.
