Fabrication and Characterization of Low-Loss SiN Waveguides

Silicon nitride (SiN) has become a key material in integrated photonics and is increasingly seen as a potential replacement for silicon as the main waveguiding platform. Its advantages—low optical losses, a wide transparency range, high power handling, and easier coupling to fiber modes—make it ideal for a broad range of applications. These include telecommunications, data centers, biosensing, LiDAR, and emerging quantum technologies. In our lab, we focus on its application in heterogeneous integration with an active material for electro-optic modulation, enabling high-speed and efficient signal processing. Show details
