Sidewall-Poled Nanophotonic Lithium Niobate with Bidirectional Characterization
Aditya Tripathi, Michael S. Bullock, Parash Thapalia +10
Accurate characterization of integrated nonlinear photonic devices is often limited by unknown facet-coupling losses and fabrication-induced non-uniformities, leading to systematic…
