摘要
We numerically demonstrate the use of waveguide dispersion to shift the zero- dispersion wavelength of an As2S3 waveguide to telecom wavelengths. The device implications for parametric gain and wavelength-conversion via four- wave mixing are investigated, giving an operating bandwidth of 550 nm. We also show that the photosensitivity of chalcogenide can be used for post- fabrication tuning of waveguide dispersion characteristics. (c) 2007 Optical Society of America.
