Photonic bandgap microcombs at 1064 nm

February 27, 2024
Author(s)
Gregory Spektor, Jizhao Zang, Atasi Dan, Travis Briles, Grant Brodnik, Haixin Liu, Jennifer Black, David Carlson, Scott Papp
Microresonator frequency combs and their design versatility have revolutionized research areas from data communication to exoplanet searches. While microcombs in the 1550 nm band are well documented, there is interest in using microcombs in other bands

Threshold and Laser Conversion in Nanostructured-Resonator Parametric Oscillators

January 10, 2024
Author(s)
Haixin Liu, Grant Brodnik, Jizhao Zang, David Carlson, Jennifer Black, Scott Papp
We explore optical parametric oscillation (OPO) in nanophotonic resonators, enabling arbitrary, nonlinear phase matching and nearly lossless control of energy conversion. Such pristine OPO laser converters are determined by nonlinear light-matter

Nonlinear Networks for Arbitrary Optical Synthesis

May 19, 2023
Author(s)
Jennifer Black, Zachary Newman, Su-Peng Yu, David Carlson, Scott Papp
Nonlinear wavelength conversion is a powerful control of light, especially when implemented at the nanoscale with integrated photonics. However, strict energy conservation and phase-matching requirements constrain the converted output. To overcome these

Optical-parametric oscillation in photonic-crystal ring resonators

October 20, 2022
Author(s)
Jennifer Black, Grant Brodnik, Haixin Liu, Su-Peng Yu, David Carlson, Jizhao Zang, Travis Briles, Scott Papp
By-design access to laser wavelength, especially with integrated photonics, is critical to advance quantum sensors, such as optical clocks and quantum-information systems, and open opportunities in optical communication. Semiconductor-laser gain provides

Group-velocity dispersion engineering of tantalum pentoxide integrated photonics

February 9, 2021
Author(s)
Jennifer Black, Richelle H. Streater, Kieran F. LaMee, David Carlson, Su P. Yu, Scott Papp
Designing integrated photonics, especially to leverage Kerr-nonlinear optics, requires accurate and precise knowledge of refractive index across the visible to infrared spectral ranges. Tantalum pentoxide (Ta2O5, tantala) is an emerging material platform
