Abstract

Silicon wayeguides fabricated on silicon-on-insulator wafers are leaky in nature. This fact puts a lower bound on the insulator thickness in silicon photonic structures as integrated with state-of-the-art electronic devices. We examine this constraint from the angle of finite gain compensation for leakage loss using m-V semiconductor gain media bonded to passive silicon waveguides.
