Abstract

We computationally explore the optical and elastic modes necessary for acoustoelectrically enhanced Brillouin interactions. The large simulated piezoelectric (k2 ≈ 6%) and optome-chanical (|g0| ≈ 8000 (rad/s)√m) coupling theoretically predicts a performance enhancement of several orders of magnitude in Brillouin-based photonic technologies.
