Air mode silicon nitride photonic crystals and their application to nonlinear quantum optomechanical sensing
Chris Healey, Hamidreza Kaviani, Paul E. Barclay
Nanoscale photonic crystal cavity optomechanical devices enable detection of nanomechanical phenomena with a sensitivity sufficient to observe quantum effects. Here we present the…
Hexagonal boron nitride cavity optomechanics
Prasoon K. Shandilya, Johannes E. Fröch, Matthew Mitchell +7
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is an emerging layered material that plays a key role in a variety of two-dimensional devices, and has potential applications in nanophotonics and nan…
Design and experimental demonstration of optomechanical paddle nanocavities
Chris Healey, Hamidreza Kaviani, Marcelo Wu +4
We present the design, fabrication and initial characterization of a paddle nanocavity consisting of a suspended sub-picogram nanomechanical resonator optomechanically coupled to a…
Dissipative and Dispersive Optomechanics in a Nanocavity Torque Sensor
Marcelo Wu, Aaron C. Hryciw, Chris Healey +5
Dissipative and dispersive optomechanical couplings are experimentally observed in a photonic crystal split-beam nanocavity optimized for detecting nanoscale sources of torque. Dis…
Raman quantum memory based on an ensemble of nitrogen-vacancy centers coupled to a microcavity
Khabat Heshami, Charles Santori, Behzad Khanaliloo +4
We propose a scheme to realize optical quantum memories in an ensemble of nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond that are coupled to a micro-cavity. The scheme is based on off-resonan…
Time-cost analysis of a quantum key distribution system clocked at 100 MHz
Xiaofan Mo, Itzel Lucio Martinez, Philip Chan +3
We describe the realization of a quantum key distribution (QKD) system clocked at 100 MHz. The system includes classical postprocessing implemented via software, and is operated ov…
Characterization of an InGaAs/InP single-photon detector at 200 MHz gate rate
Chris Healey, Itzel Lucio-Martinez, Michael R. E. Lamont +2
We characterize a near-infrared single-photon detector based on an InGaAs/InP avalanche photodiode and the self-differencing post-processing technique. It operates at gate rates of…
