Spontaneous Raman scattering in suspended InGaAsP waveguides

We demonstrate the spontaneous Raman effect in suspended InGaAsP waveguides and report that the zinc blende Raman selection rules are relaxed in the waveguide geometry. The suspended semiconductor waveguide is an exciting platform for a range of linear and nonlinear optical experiments due to its en...

Description
Summary:We demonstrate the spontaneous Raman effect in suspended InGaAsP waveguides and report that the zinc blende Raman selection rules are relaxed in the waveguide geometry. The suspended semiconductor waveguide is an exciting platform for a range of linear and nonlinear optical experiments due to its enhanced light-guiding capability.
