Mid-infrared nonlinear optics in thin-film lithium niobate on sapphire
Jatadhari Mishra, Timothy P. McKenna, Edwin Ng +7
Periodically poled thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) waveguides have emerged as a leading platform for highly efficient frequency conversion in the near-infrared. However, the commo…
Thermo-Optic Multi-Stability and Relaxation in Silicon Microring Resonators with Lateral Diodes
Dodd Gray, Ryan Hamerly, Meysam Namdari +4
We demonstrate voltage-tunable thermo-optic bi- and tri-stability in silicon photonic microring resonators with lateral p-i-n junctions and present a technique for characterizing t…
Reduced models and design principles for half-harmonic generation in synchronously-pumped optical parametric oscillators
Ryan Hamerly, Alireza Marandi, Marc Jankowski +3
We develop reduced models that describe half-harmonic generation in a synchronously-pumped optical parametric oscillator above threshold, where nonlinearity, dispersion, and group-…
Topological defect formation in 1D and 2D spin chains realized by network of optical parametric oscillators
Ryan Hamerly, Kensuke Inaba, Takahiro Inagaki +3
A network of optical parametric oscillators is used to simulate classical Ising and XY spin chains. The collective nonlinear dynamics of this network, driven by quantum noise rathe…
Optical Devices based on Limit Cycles and Amplification in Semiconductor Optical Cavities
Ryan Hamerly, Hideo Mabuchi
At strong pump powers, a semiconductor optical cavity passes through a Hopf bifurcation and undergoes self-oscillation. We simulate this device using semiclassical Langevin equatio…
Quantum Noise of Free-Carrier Dispersion in Semiconductor Optical Cavities
Ryan Hamerly, Hideo Mabuchi
This paper derives Langevin equations for an optical cavity where the dominant nonlinearity arises from free-carrier dispersion. We define a generalized Wigner function, compute a…
