Unveiling charge dynamics on the generation of high extinction wide pulse generation on thin-film lithium tantalate

Ayed Al Sayem, Shiekh Zia Uddin, Ting-Chen Hu +6

We experimentally demonstrate high-extinction optical pulse generation in thin-film lithium tantalate (TFLT), achieving a wide range of pulse widths with sharp rise and fall edges,…

Stable thin-film lithium tantalate modulators operating at high temperature for uncooled operation

Ayed Al Sayem, Shiekh Zia Uddin, Ting-Chen Hu +4

We demonstrate stable operation of a thin-film lithium tantalate (TFLT) modulator at very high operating temperatures. We show that the electro-optic modulation and bandwidth of th…

High bandwidth traveling wave electro-optic modulator at 1μm on thin-film lithium tantalate

Ayed Al Sayem, Shiekh Zia Uddin, Ting-Chen Hu +4

We present the first experimental demonstration of a high-bandwidth thin-film lithium tantalate (TFLT) electro-optic modulator operating at 1 μm, with a Vπ of 2.4 V, and less tha…

High-power handling and bias stability of thin-film Lithium Tantalate microring and coupling resonators

Ayed Sayem, Shiekh Zia Uddin, Ting-Chen Hu +4

In this paper, we demonstrate the ultra-high-power handling capability and DC bias stability of optical microring and electro-optic (EO) coupling resonators on the thin-film lithiu…

A tunable FP Perot coupling interferometer on thin-film lithium niobate

Ayed Al Sayem, Heqing Huang, Ting-Chen Hu +4

We experimentally show an electro-optic tunable Fabry-Perot cavity on thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN). Instead of tuning the cavity phase and thus resonant frequency, we demonstra…

Dual-Wavelength -OFDR Using a Hybrid-Integrated Laser Stabilized to an Integrated SiN Coil Resonator

Mohamad Hossein Idjadi, Stefano Grillanda, Nicolas Fontaine +11

We demonstrate dual-wavelength distributed acoustic sensing over 37 km of standard single-mode fiber using -OFDR, utilizing a scalable hybrid-integrated dual-wavelength laser c…
