Photorefraction-induced Bragg scattering in cryogenic lithium niobate ring resonators

Yuntao Xu, Ayed Al Sayem, Chang-Ling Zou +2

We report intracavity Bragg scattering induced by photorefractive (PR) effect in high-Q lithium niobate (LN) ring resonators at cryogenic temperatures. We show that, when a cavity…

Ground-state Pulsed Cavity Electro-optics for Microwave-to-optical Conversion

Wei Fu, Mingrui Xu, Xianwen Liu +9

In the development of quantum microwave-to-optical (MO) converters, excessive noise induced by the parametric optical drive remains a major challenge at milli-Kelvin temperatures.…
