High-Q photonic resonators and electro-optic coupling using silicon-on-lithium-niobate
Jeremy D. Witmer, Joseph A. Valery, Patricio Arrangoiz-Arriola +3
Future quantum networks in which superconducting quantum processors are connected via optical links, will require microwave-to-optical photon converters that preserve entanglement.…
Release-free silicon-on-insulator cavity optomechanics
Christopher J. Sarabalis, Yanni D. Dahmani, Rishi N. Patel +2
We demonstrate optically coupled nanomechanical resonators fabricated on silicon-on-insulator. Silicon fin waveguides are used to control the dispersion of mechanical waves and eng…
Thermal Brillouin noise observed in silicon optomechanical waveguide
Raphaël Van Laer, Christopher J. Sarabalis, Roel Baets +2
Stimulated Brillouin scattering was recently observed in nanoscale silicon waveguides. Surprisingly, thermally-driven photon-phonon conversion in these structures had not yet been…
Enhancing a slow and weak optomechanical nonlinearity with delayed quantum feedback
Zhaoyou Wang, Amir H. Safavi-Naeini
One of the central goals of quantum optics is to generate large interactions between single photons. Light interacting with motion in an optomechanical system can sense minute fluc…
Prospects for quantum acoustics with phononic crystal devices
Patricio Arrangoiz-Arriola, Amir H. Safavi-Naeini
Nanomechanical systems made from phononic crystals can act as highly coherent microwave-frequency circuits at cryogenic temperatures. However, generating sufficient coupling betwee…
Design of nanobeam photonic crystal resonators for a silicon-on-lithium-niobate platform
Jeremy D. Witmer, Jeff T. Hill, Amir H. Safavi-Naeini
We outline the design for a photonic crystal resonator made in a hybrid Silicon/Lithium Niobate material system. Using the index contrast between silicon and lithium niobate, it is…
