Abstract

We investigate the potential of 1T'-MoTe2 as a saturable absorber for silicon photonics devices. By optimizing the coupling coefficient between the 2D material and the waveguide, we achieve a maximum coupling of 18%. Utilizing carrier statistics calculations, we estimate the saturation intensity per effective interaction length as 7.5MW/cm(2).nm at 1560nm. Our simulation suggests that the saturation intensity in an optimized waveguide reaches approximately 13MW/cm(2). (AU)
