The research of nonlinear optical phenomena in silicon slot waveguide structures

This work is devoted to the study of nonlinear phenomena in silicon waveguides, as well as in silicon-organic hybrids, which help to obtain improved characteristics of the initial device by compensating for the limitations imposed by second- and third-order nonlinearities in Si. The slot waveguide model is analyzed using computational methods such as the finite element method, the finite difference method in the time domain, and the singular perturbation method.
