چکیده
Designing integrated photonics, especially to leverage Kerr-nonlinear optics, requires accurate and precise knowledge of refractive index across the visible infrared spectral ranges. Tantala (Ta_2O_5) is an emerging material platform for photonics nanophotonics that offers broadband ultralow loss, moderately high nonlinearity, advantages scalable heterogeneous integration. We present refractive-index measurements on a thin film tantala, we explore efficacy this data group-velocity dispersion (GVD) engineering with waveguide ring-resonator devices. In particular, observed extent supercontinuum generation in fabricated waveguides, wavelength dependence free range (FSR) optical resonators provide sensitive test our integrated-photonics design process. Our work opens up new possibilities including octave-spanning soliton microcombs.

Engineering integrated photonics for heralded quantum gates
Scaling up linear-optics quantum computing will require multi-photon gates which are compact, phase-stable, exhibit excellent quantum interference, and have success heralded by the detection of ancillary photons. We investigate the design, fabrication and characterisation of the optimal known gate scheme which meets these requirements: the Knill controlled-Z gate, implemented in integrated lase...

متن کاملDirect Imaging of Group Velocity Dispersion Curves in Shallow Water
Geometric dispersion is commonly observed in shallow water marine data due to post-critical multiples in the water layer over a hard seafloor. Characteristics of the guided waves include formation of distinct propagation modes and associated divergence of phase and group velocity. Methods have been available since 1981 to image phase velocity dispersion curves. Here we report a method to direct...
متن کاملPulse splitting in the anomalous group-velocity-dispersion regime.
We investigate experimentally the role that the initial temporal profile of ultrashort laser pulses has on the self-focusing dynamics in the anomalous group-velocity dispersion (GVD) regime. We observe that pulse-splitting occurs for super-Gaussian pulses, but not for Gaussian pulses. The splitting does not occur for either pulse shape when the GVD is near-zero. These observations agree with pr...
متن کاملTailored anomalous group-velocity dispersion in silicon channel waveguides.
We present the first experimental demonstration of anomalous group-velocity dispersion (GVD) in silicon waveguides across the telecommunication bands. We show that the GVD in such waveguides can be tuned from -2000 to 1000 ps/(nm*km) by tailoring the cross-sectional size and shape of the waveguide.
