Open AccessTowards athermal optically-interconnected computing system using slotted silicon microring resonators and RF-photonic comb generation
We report that completely athermal design of a slotted silicon waveguide is possible by combining the negative thermo-optic (TO) coefficient of, for example, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) with the positive TO...
