文摘We report supercontinuum generation in nitrogen-rich(N-rich)silicon nitride waveguides fabricated through back-end complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor(CMOS)-compatible processes on a 300 mm platform.By pumping in the anomalous dispersion regime at a wavelength of 1200 nm,two-octave spanning spectra covering the visible and near-infrared ranges,including the O band,were obtained.Numerical calculations showed that the nonlinear index of N-rich silicon nitride is within the same order of magnitude as that of stoichiometric silicon nitride,despite the lower silicon content.N-rich silicon nitride then appears to be a promising candidate for nonlinear devices compatible with back-end CMOS processes.
