Coherent perfect absorption in a silicon photonic ring resonator

Abstract

We present the first experimental demonstration of coherent perfect absorption (CPA) in an integrated device. By leveraging the effects of CPA, phase-controlled modulation is achieved in a silicon photonic ring-resonator with an extinction of 8.12dB.
