Ultra-Low-Loss Silicon Nitride Photonics Based on Deposited Films Compatible with Foundries

Xingchen Ji, Yoshitomo Okawachi, Andres Gil-Molina +4

The fabrication processes of silicon nitride photonic devices used in foundries require low temperature deposition, which typically leads to high propagation losses. Here, we show…
