A new technical paper titled “Towards fibre-like loss for photonic integration from violet to near-infrared” was published by researchers at Caltech, UCSB, Leiden University and University of Southampton.
Abstract excerpt:
“Here we present an ultralow-loss PIC platform based on germano-silicate—the material underlying the extraordinary performance of optical fibre—but realized by a fully CMOS-foundry-compatible process.”
