Abstract:In this paper, our recent theoretical and experimental results on silicon hybrid nanoplasmonic waveguides and integrated devices are reviewed. First, we present several types of silicon hybrid nanoplasmonic waveguides, which enable the confinement of optical field within the lateral scale of 100 nm, as well as a ~102 m propagation distance. Second, several kinds of submicron photonic integrated devices like power splitters, ultra-compact polarization beam splitters and resonators are presented by using silicon hybrid nanoplasmonic waveguides. Finally, the coupling between silicon hybrid nanoplasmonic waveguides and silicon nanowires, as well as the loss compensation of silicon hybrid nanoplasmonic waveguides with gain mediums has also been discussed.
