A detailed description of the non-linear effects in silicon is needed when designing ring resonators platform. The optical field propagating waveguide strongly absorbed due to two-photon-absorption (TPA) and free-carrier-absorption (FCA), which become more prominent with increasing input power ring. We present a new approach for modelling based resonators. have numerically solved problem coupling variation refractive index loss TPA, FCA , self-heating Shockley-Read-Hall (SRH) theory...
Abstract We evaluate the degradation of 1.3 µm InAs quantum-dot laser diodes epitaxially grown on silicon. For first time, optical mechanisms are investigated by evaluating variations in gain spectra measured during a constant-current stress test. Remarkably, showed that reduction peak modal is dominant compared to increse internal absorption losses. Moreover, increase threshold current (Ith) induced was found be correlated reduction. This experimental evidence modeling variation through...
We report pump-probe measurements of time resolved optical transmission spectra Si and Si/poly-Si microrings after high free carrier densities have been generated by two-photon absorption the pump pulse. From measurements, we can extract recovery dynamics absorption, refractive index dispersion, carriers finally effective initial lifetimes. The method is validated comparing modelling simulations with measurements; obtained results are in very good agreement what predicted Shockley-Read-Hall...
We study the dynamics of hybrid integrated lasers with dispersive effective reflectivity implemented through coupled microrings in a SiN platform. investigate self-generation optical frequency combs and characterize them terms bandwidth, spectral line separation, phase amplitude noise.
We design silicon and polysilicon microring resonators with different cross-sections to minimise the nonlinear effects self-heating in SISCAP platform. show that free carrier diffusion rib waveguides reduces impact of non-linearities resulting high Q-factor low carriers lifetime.

This paper investigates the strategic role of low-informative signals – conceptualized as fake news in shaping belief formation and influencing decision-making under uncertainty. Building on experimental frameworks Exley (2016) Garcia et al. (2020), we introduce a novel design that mimics real-world misinformation through are true but partial, fostering biased beliefs. Specifically, test whether such influence individuals to favor self-serving options, particularly when misleading...
We present a new approach for the modelling of non-linear effects in silicon based ring resonators by coupling equations Two-Photon-Absorption (TPA), Free-Carrier-Absortpion (FCA) and self-heating with Shockley–Read–Hall theory involving trap-assisted recombination processes. SRH gives carrier lifetime which is essential to fit model results experiments. The developed validated comparison experimental measurements performed on different types it employed design rings minimal integration...
