Fall 2016
This thesis describes the fabrication and characterization of visible-range hollow Bragg waveguides. A wafer bonding method was first utilized to fabricate tapered hollow Bragg waveguides, which can function as the dispersive element of an integrated spectrometer. Etched channels coated with...

Fall 2013
This thesis focuses on the development of integrated silicon-based nanoplasmonic waveguides and devices for use in all-optical plasmonic circuitry. To this end, metal-insulator-semiconductor-insulator-metal (MISIM) and metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) hybrid nanoplasmonic waveguides were...
