Highly Nonlinear Silicon Photonics Slot Waveguides without Nonlinear losses of highly nonlinear silicon/organic photonics slot waveguides are analyzed. Unlike silicon strip waveguides, slot waveguides do not show absorption related speed limitations up to highest input powers. Introduction Highly nonlinear waveguides are key components for all-optical on-chip processing at highest bit rates. Of Slot-waveguide - Wikipedia The slot-waveguide was born in 2003 as an unexpected outcome of theoretical studies on metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) electro-optic modulation in high-confinement silicon photonic waveguides by Vilson Rosa de Almeida and Carlos Angulo Barrios, then a Ph.D. student and a Postdoctoral Associate, respectively, at Cornell University. Silicon-on-Insulator Slot Waveguides: Theory and
