Abstract
We propose high index contrast InGaP photonic wires as a platform for the integration of nonlinear optical functions in the telecom wavelength window. We characterize the linear and nonlinear properties of these waveguide structures. Waveguides with a linear loss of 12 dB/cm and which are coupled to a single mode fiber through gratings with a −7.5 dB coupling loss are realized. From four wave mixing experiments, we extract the real part of the nonlinear parameter ã to be 475 ± 50 W−1m−1 and from nonlinear transmission measurements we infer the absence of two-photon absorption and measure a three-photon absorption coefficient of (2.5 ± 0.5) x 10−2 cm3GW−2.
