The main goal of this NSF-funded project [1201308 - Year 4] is to develop an integrated photonics devices based on silicon photonics which can be used for compact and efficient nonlinear classical and quantum photonics. We demonstrated tunable photon-pair generation at room temperature from a high-Q Si microring resonator and coupled-resonator optical waveguide devices.

The main goal of this NSF-funded project [1201308 - Year 3] is to develop integrated photonics devices based on silicon photonics which can be used for compact and efficient nonlinear classical and quantum photonics applications. During the third year of this project, we demonstrated the combination of an on-chip ring mixer and a tunable filter.

The main goal of this NSF-funded project [1201308 - Year 2] is to develop an integrated photonics device technology based on silicon photonics which can be used for compact and efficient nonlinear classical and quantum photonics applications. “Mixers” in the title reflects the use of nonlinear wave mixing, such as through four-wave mixing, which is the foundational optical process for wide-span wavelength conversion and entangled photon-pair generation in silicon photonics.

This NSF-funded project [1160881] is a one-year supplement to NSF-funded project 0925133. The CROW device was used to study entangled photon-pair generation and heralded single-photon generation using spontaneous four-wave mixing which is based on the optical Kerr effect.

A high-Q-factor tunable silica-based microring resonator (MRR) is demonstrated. To meet the critical-coupling condition, a Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) as the tunable coupler was integrated with a racetrack resonator. Then, 40 mW electronic power was applied on the microheater on the arm of MZI, and a maximal notch depth of about 13.84 dB and a loaded Q factor of 4.47 × 106 were obtained. The proposed MRR shows great potential in practical application for optical communications and integrated optics.

When combined with high index constrast slabs in which light can be efficiently guided, microfabricated two-dimensional photonic bandgap mirrors provide us with the geometries needed to confine light into extremely small volumes. We show that these high Q cavities now make it possible to define microcavity lasers which function at room temperature and have mode volumes as small as 2.5 (λ/2nslab)3 or 0.03 μm3 in InGaAsP emitting at 1.55μm.
