Four-wave-mixing gain and all-optical signal processing in silicon nanowires

Four-wave-mixing gain and all-optical signal processing in silicon nanowires

Silicon nanowires have an immense potential for nonlinear optical functions. Recent work on four-wave-mixing gain in hydrogenated amorphous silicon wires at telecom wavelengths and in crystalline silicon wires in the 2μm wavelength range is reviewed.
