On-chip high-order parametric downconversion in the excitonic Mott insulator NbCl for programmable multiphoton entangled states
Dmitry Skachkov, Dirk R. Englund, Michael N. Leuenberger
Spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) and four-wave mixing in and media underpin most entangled-photon sources, but direct generation of higher-order e…
Multiferroic Dark Excitonic Mott Insulator in the Breathing-Kagome Lattice Material NbCl
Mahtab A. Khan, Naseem Ud Din, Dmitry Skachkov +2
Flat electronic bands strongly enhance Coulomb interactions and can stabilize unconventional insulating states. Motivated by the recent discovery of flat bands in breathing Kagome…
Er:AlO for Telecom-Band Photonics: Electronic Structure and Optical Properties
Mahtab A. Khan, Jayden D. Craft, Hari P. Paudel +3
Er-doped AlO is a promising host for telecom-band integrated photonics. Here we combine ab initio calculations with a symmetry-resolved analysis to elucidate substitutional…
Linear and nonlinear optical response based on many-body GW-Bethe-Salpeter and Kadanoff-Baym approaches for two-dimensional layered semiconductors
Dmitry Skachkov, Dirk R. Englund, Michael N. Leuenberger
The family of 2D layered semiconductors, including transition metal chalcogenides (TMCs) of the form MX (M=Ga, In; X=S, Se, Te) exhibit exceptional nonlinear optical properties. Th…
