Tantala Kerr nonlinear integrated photonics

May 26, 2021
Author(s)
Hojoong Jung, Su P. Yu, David Carlson, Tara E. Drake, Travis Briles, Scott Papp
Integrated photonics plays a central role in modern science and technology, enabling experiments from nonlinear science to quantum information, ultraprecise measurements and sensing, and advanced applications like data communication and signal processing

Broadband Resonator-Waveguide Coupling for Efficient Extraction of Octave Spanning Microcombs

October 1, 2019
Author(s)
Gregory Moille, Qing Li, Travis Briles, Su P. Yu, Tara E. Drake, Xiyuan Lu, Ashutosh Rao, Daron Westly, Scott Papp, Kartik Srinivasan
Frequency combs spanning over an octave have been successfully demonstrated on-chip in Kerr nonlinear microresonators, thanks to their large effective nonlinearity and ability to support a suitable dispersion profile. Efficient extraction of intracavity

Terahertz-Rate Kerr-Microresonator Optical Clockwork

August 12, 2019
Author(s)
Tara E. Drake, Travis Briles, Daryl T. Spencer II, Jordan R. Stone, David R. Carlson, Daniel D. Hickstein, Qing Li, Daron A. Westly, Kartik A. Srinivasan, Scott A. Diddams, Scott B. Papp
Kerr microresonators generate interesting and useful fundamental states of electromagnetic radiation through nonlinear interactions of continuous-wave (CW) laser light. When implemented with photonic-integration techniques, functional devices with low

Architecture for the photonic integration of an optical atomic clock

May 20, 2019
Author(s)
Zachary L. Newman, Vincent N. Maurice, Tara E. Drake, Jordan R. Stone, Travis Briles, Daryl T. Spencer II, Connor D. Fredrick, Qing Li, Daron A. Westly, Bojan R. Ilic, B. Shen, M.-G Suh, K. Y. Yang, C Johnson, D.M. S. Johnson, Leo Hollberg, K. Vahala, Kartik A. Srinivasan, Scott A. Diddams, John E. Kitching, Scott B. Papp, Matthew T. Hummon
Optical atomic clocks, which rely on high-frequency, narrow-line optical transitions to stabilize a clock laser, outperform their microwave counterparts by several orders of magnitude due to their inherently large quality factors. Optical clocks based on

Thermal and Nonlinear Dissipative-Soliton Dynamics in Kerr Microresonator Frequency Combs

August 8, 2018
Author(s)
Jordan R. Stone, Travis Briles, Tara E. Drake, Daryl T. Spencer, David R. Carlson, Scott A. Diddams, Scott B. Papp
We report on radiofrequency techniques to reliably generate and control dissipative-Kerr- soliton microresonator frequency combs. Since the pump-laser frequency detuning to the resonator primarily determines the soliton dynamics, we devise an offset Pound

Accurate optical stabilization of a Kerr-microresonator frequency comb

June 14, 2018
Author(s)
Travis Briles, Jordan R. Stone, Tara E. Drake, Daryl T. Spencer, Connor D. Fredrick, Qing Li, Daron A. Westly, Bojan R. Ilic, Kartik A. Srinivasan, Scott A. Diddams, Scott B. Papp
Carrier-envelope-phase stabilization of optical waveforms enables exquisitely precise measurements by way of direct optical-frequency synthesis, coherent optical-to-microwave phase conversion, and control of ultrafast waveforms. We report such phase

An Integrated-Photonics Optical-Frequency Synthesizer
