Abstract
We will demonstrate recent progress in Silicon nanowire based devices such as AWG's and lattice filters and show their performance is rapidly reaching a level useful for practical applications. Next we will show how the functionality of the passive nanowires can be improved by different approaches including heterogeneous integration with InP-based materials and different overlays such as liquid crystal and colloidal nanocrystals.
