Abstract

The compensation of sensitivity for ambient temperature is big issue to realize Silicon photonic integrated circuits. The large positive thermo-optic coefficient of Silicon core was cancelled by the negative thermooptic coefficient of hybrid polymer cladding including rutile TiO2 nanoparticles. The athermal waveguide structure with Silicon core and Hybrid polymer cladding was designed by numerical calculation.
