Synopsis

On-Chip Photonics: Principles, Technology and Applications reviews the advances of integrated photonic devices and their demonstrated applications. The discussed applications encompass a wide range of cutting-edge technologies, including quantum photonics, lasers on a chip, mid-infrared and overtone spectroscopies, all-optical processing on a chip, logic gates on a chip, and cryptography on a chip. The summaries in the book chapters facilitate an understanding of the field and enable the application of optical waveguides in a variety of optical systems. Overviews of computational tools, material platforms, and suggestions for the realization of on-chip photonic devices are also included

• Introduces advanced concepts of passive and active on-chip photonic components
• Discusses emerging applications of on-chip photonics, quantum technologies, computing, and more
• Reviews materials, computational tools, and suggestions for the realization of on-chip photonic devices

About this title

About the Authors

Dr. Alina Karabchevsky is a full professor at the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Ben-Gurion University (BGU) of the Negev and heads the Integrated Photonics Center at BGU, which explores the interaction of light and matter on a chip. She serves as Chair of the IEEE Women in Engineering Affinity group, Israel section. Dr. Karabchevsky holds a PhD in electrooptics engineering. She was the recipient of the Alma Mater President’s Award for “Outstanding Woman in Science”. She gained her postdoctoral experience at the Optoelectronics Research Center at the University of Southampton, UK. Her main research interests lay in the areas of integrated photonics and microfibers, all-dielectric photonics, plasmonics, on-chip spectroscopy, and optomechanics.

Dr. Amol Choudhary is an associate professor at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India, and heads the UltraFast Optical Communications and High-performance Integrated Photonics (UFO-CHIP) group. He was previously an EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellow with the Optoelectronics Research Center at the University of Southampton, UK, and the Australian Government’s Discovery Early Career Research Award (DECRA) fellow with the University of Sydney, Australia. He holds a PhD in optoelectronics from the University of Southampton, UK. He was the recipient of the Optica’s Ivan P. Kaminow Outstanding Early Career Professional Prize in 2018 and the Institute of Engineers India (IEI)’s Young Engineer Award (YEA) in 2020.
