Abstract

Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) is a strong candidate for application in future planar waveguide integration technology, whether or not luminescence is extracted from the silicon. We review recent research on photonic devices based on silicon-on-insulator. These devices exploit either photonic crystal or photonic wire concepts—or combinations of both. Aspects of the technologies used that are particularly critical for successful implementation of SOI-based photonics are addressed.
