Few-photon Transport in Fano-resonance waveguide geometries
Kristoffer B. Joanesarson, Jake Iles-Smith, Mikkel Heuck +1
We present a theoretical study of Fano interference effects in few-photon transport. Under appropriate conditions, a local defect in an optical waveguide induces a highly asymmetri…
Controlled-phase Gate using Dynamically Coupled Cavities and Optical Nonlinearities
Mikkel Heuck, Kurt Jacobs, Dirk R. Englund
We propose an architecture for a high-fidelity deterministic controlled-phase gate between two photonic qubits using bulk optical nonlinearities in near-term feasible photonic inte…
Photon-Photon Interactions in Dynamically Coupled Cavities
Mikkel Heuck, Kurt Jacobs, Dirk R. Englund
We study theoretically the interaction between two photons in a nonlinear cavity. The photons are loaded into the cavity via a method we propose here, in which the input/output cou…
Single Photon Detection by Cavity-Assisted All-Optical Gain
Christopher Panuski, Mihir Pant, Mikkel Heuck +2
We consider the free carrier dispersion effect in a semiconductor nanocavity in the limit of discrete photoexcited electron-hole pairs. This analysis reveals the possibility of ult…
Unidirectional frequency conversion in microring resonators for on-chip frequency-multiplexed single-photon sources
Mikkel Heuck, Jacob Gade Koefoed, Jesper Bjerge Christensen +4
Microring resonators are attractive for low-power frequency conversion via Bragg-scattering four-wave-mixing due to their comb-like resonance spectrum. However, conversion efficien…
