A heterogeneously integrated lithium niobate-on-silicon nitride photonic platform

Rui Ning Wang, Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Miles Henry Anderson, Mikhail Churaev, Anat Siddharth, Viacheslav Snigirev

The availability of thin-film lithiumniobate on insulator (LNOI) and advances in processing have led to the emergence of fully integrated LiNbO3 electro-optic devices. Yet to date, LiNbO3 photonic integrated circuits have mostly been fabricated using non-s ...

Programmable frequency-bin quantum states in a nano-engineered silicon device

Matteo Galli, Marco Clementi

Frequency-bin qubits get the best of time-bin and dual-rail encodings, but require external modulators and pulse shapers to build arbitrary states. Here, instead, the authors work directly on-chip by controlling the interference of biphoton amplitudes gene ...

Integrated Backward Second-Harmonic Generation through Optically Induced Quasi-Phase-Matching

Camille Sophie Brès, Jianqi Hu, Edgars Nitiss, Ozan Yakar

Quasi-phase-matching for efficient backward second-harmonic generation requires sub-μm poling periods, a nontrivial fabrication feat. For the first time, we report integrated first-order quasiphase-matched backward second-harmonic generation enabled by see ...

First developments towards producing inductive magnetic sensors using state-of-the-art photolithography techniques

Duccio Testa, Ambrine Douhane, Marcus Cemes

Inductive magnetic sensors are needed for tokamak operation to provide the low-frequency (LF) measurements leading to the equilibrium reconstruction and to monitor the higher frequency (HF) instabilities; the HF magnetic sensors are often also used as a ba ...

Study on the possibility of Φ-OTDR sensing in hollow-core fibres

Luc Thévenaz, Malak Mohamed Hossameldeen Omar Mohamed Galal, Yuting Yang

The backscattering process in hollow core fibres shows a large similarity with Rayleigh scattering, offering the potential to be exploited for distributed sensing. A classical Φ-OTDR implementation is used to observe the backscattering signal from the surf ...

Hybrid lithium niobate-on-silicon nitride platform for mid-IR supercontinuum generation

Tobias Kippenberg, Mikhail Churaev

Integrated optics has shown itself very convenient for exploiting nonlinear processes as it results in high confinement factor, freedom of dispersion engineering and compactness. However, the choice of materials is crucial for the development of nonlinear ...
