Abstract
Ga0.51In0.49PGa0.51In0.49P is a promising candidate for thermally tunable nanophotonic devices due to its low thermal conductivity. In this work we study its thermo-optical response. We obtain the linear thermo-optical coefficient 푑푛/푑푇=2.0±0.3·10−4 K−1dn/dT=2.0±0.3·10−4 K−1 by investigating the transmission properties of a single mode-gap photonic crystal nanocavity.
