摘要
We present the theoretical study of a coupled cavity system yielding a Fano response on a fully on-chip silicon platform hybridized with an electro-optic polymer. This novel Fano system is based on a slot waveguide Bragg grating geometry, enabling a huge enhancement of the electro-optic properties due to slow light effects at the resonance. The modulator shows a high resonance tunability of 1.75 nm/V and a low switching power of 0.63 V. Such a versatile system shows the promise for various nonlinear and active devices only by using suitable cover material. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America
