Ultrafast optoelectronics devices, critical for future telecommunication, data ultra-high speed communications, and data communications, have been limited in speed due to the nature of the materials forming the devices. Only very few materials can be used today as substrates for high-speed optoelectronics limiting the applicability of these devices and preventing their integration with other emerging platforms such as RF photonics and silicon photonics. This lecture discusses the novel materials for integrated optics including SiC, SiN, and 2D materials. In particular, graphene offers the possibility to break the limitation of traditional photonic materials. Graphene has been shown theoretically to have a very high electro-optic coefficient with ultra-high speed. Lipson shows the first demonstration of graphene-based ultra-high speed device (30GHz) consisting of a graphene sheet integrated on a passive non-electro-optically active substrate.
