Athermal performance in high-Q polymer-clad silicon microdisk resonators

We present a method for eliminating the temperature dependence of the resonance wavelength in high-Q silicon-based microdisk resonators by using a polymer cladding with a negative thermo-optic coefficient. Design requirements for athermal performance are derived based on theory and simulation, and t...

Zusammenfassung:	We present a method for eliminating the temperature dependence of the resonance wavelength in high-Q silicon-based microdisk resonators by using a polymer cladding with a negative thermo-optic coefficient. Design requirements for athermal performance are derived based on theory and simulation, and their validity is experimentally verified.
