| Research Abstract |
We demonstrated InP-based optical multi-mode interferometers (MMI) combined with metamaterials. The MMI operated at optical-communication wavelength, 1.5-μm. The metamaterial consisted of minute split-ring resonators (SRRs) arrayed on the MMI. Magnetic resonance established between the SRR metamaterial and light at 1.5 μm, and the relative permeability of the metamaterial increased to 2.4 around this wavelength. Our results show the feasibility of semiconductor-based photonic devices combined with metamaterials. This would be useful in the development of novel optical-communication devices.
