Strong interactions between integrated microresonators and alkali atomic vapors: towards single-atom, single-photon operation

September 24, 2024
Author(s)
Roy Zekzer, Xiyuan Lu, Khoi Hoang, Rahul Shrestha, Sharoon Austin, Feng Zhou, Ashish Chanana, Glenn Holland, Daron Westly, Paul Lett, Alexey Gorshkov, Kartik Srinivasan
Cavity quantum electrodynamics (cQED), the interaction of a two-level system with a high quality factor (Q) cavity, is a foundational building block in different architectures for quantum computation, communication, and metrology. The strong interaction

Highly-twisted states of light from a high quality factor photonic crystal ring

February 27, 2023
Author(s)
Xiyuan Lu, Mingkang Wang, Feng Zhou, Mikkel Heuck, Wenqi Zhu, Vladimir Aksyuk, Dirk Englund, Kartik Srinivasan
Twisted light with orbital angular momentum (OAM) has been extensively studied for applications in quantum and classical communications, microscopy, and optical micromanipulation. Ejecting the naturally high angular momentum whispering gallery modes (WGMs)

High-performance Kerr microresonator optical parametric oscillator on a silicon chip

January 16, 2023
Author(s)
Edgar Perez, Gregory Moille, Xiyuan Lu, Jordan Stone, Feng Zhou, Kartik Srinivasan
Optical parametric oscillation (OPO) is distinguished by its wavelength access, that is, the ability to flexibly generate coherent laser light at wavelengths that are dramatically different from the pump laser, and in principle bounded solely by energy

Rod and slit photonic crystal microrings for on-chip cavity quantum electrodynamics

January 10, 2023
Author(s)
Xiyuan Lu, Feng Zhou, Yi Sun, Mingkang Wang, Qingyang Yan, Ashish Chanana, Andrew McClung, Vladimir Aksyuk, Marcelo Davanco, Kartik Srinivasan
Micro-/nanocavities that combine high quality factor (Q) and small mode volume (V) have been used to enhance light-matter interactions for cavity quantum electrodynamics (cQED). Whispering gallery mode (WGM) geometries such as microdisks and microrings

Efficient chip-based optical parametric oscillators from 590 nm to 1150 nm

December 2, 2022
Author(s)
Jordan Stone, Xiyuan Lu, Gregory Moille, Kartik Srinivasan
Optical parametric oscillators are a ubiquitous technology used to generate coherent light at frequencies not accessible by conventional laser gain. However, chip-based parametric oscillators operating in the visible spectrum have suffered from pump-to

Fractional optical angular momentum and multi-defect-mediated mode renormalization and orientation control in photonic crystal microring resonators

October 28, 2022
Author(s)
Mingkang Wang, Feng Zhou, Xiyuan Lu, Andrew McClung, Vladimir Aksyuk, Kartik Srinivasan
Whispering gallery modes (WGMs) in circularly symmetric optical microresonators exhibit integer quantized angular momentum numbers due to the boundary condition imposed by the geometry. Here, we show that incorporating a photonic crystal pattern in an

Ultra-broadband Kerr microcomb through soliton spectral translation

December 14, 2021
Author(s)
Gregory Moille, Edgar Perez, Jordan Stone, Ashutosh Rao, Xiyuan Lu, Tahmid Rahman, Yanne Chembo, Kartik Srinivasan
Broad bandwidth and stable microresonator frequency combs are critical for optical atomic clocks, optical frequency synthesis, dual comb spectroscopy, and a host of other applications that require accurate and precise optical frequency measurements in a

Towards integrated photonic interposers for processing octave-spanning microresonator frequency combs

May 26, 2021
Author(s)
Ashutosh Rao, Gregory Moille, Xiyuan Lu, Daron Westly, Davide Sacchetto, Michael Geiselmann, Michael Zervas, Scott Papp, John E. Bowers, Kartik Srinivasan
Microcombs - optical frequency combs generated in microresonators - have advanced tremendously in the last decade, and are advantageous for applications in frequency metrology, navigation, spectroscopy, telecommunications, and microwave photonics

Automated on-axis direct laser writing of coupling elements for photonic chips

December 21, 2020
Author(s)
Edgar Perez, Gregory Moille, Xiyuan Lu, Daron Westly, Kartik Srinivasan
Direct laser writing (DLW) has recently been used to create versatile micro-optic structures that facilitate photonic-chip coupling, like free-form lenses, free-form mirrors, and photonic wirebonds. However, at the edges of photonic chips, the top-down/off

Efficient photoinduced second-harmonic generation in silicon nitride photonics

November 2, 2020
Author(s)
Xiyuan Lu, Gregory Moille, Ashutosh Rao, Daron Westly, Kartik Srinivasan
Silicon photonics lacks a second-order nonlinear optical (chi(2)) response in general because the typical constituent materials are centro-symmetric and lack inversion symmetry, which prohibits chi(2) nonlinear processes such as second harmonic generation

Dissipative Kerr Solitons in a III-V Microresonator

June 22, 2020
Author(s)
Gregory T. Moille, Lin Chang, Weiqiang Xie, Ashutosh S. Rao, Xiyuan Lu, Marcelo I. Davanco, John E. Bowers, Kartik A. Srinivasan
We demonstrate stable microresonator Kerr solitons in a III-V platform through cryogenic quenching of the thermorefractive effect. Such phase-stable operation is critical to fully exploit the high nonlinearity and low loss available in this platform.
