We report on the design, fabrication and optical characterization of bichromatic photonic crystal cavities in thin silicon membranes, with resonances around 1550 nm wavelength. The cavity designs are based on a recently proposed photonic crystal implementation of the Aubry-Andre-Harper bichromatic potential, which relies on the superposition of two one-dimensional lattices with non-integer ratio between the periodicity constants. In photonic crystal nanocavities, this confinement mechanism is such that optimized figures of merit can be straightforwardly achieved, in particular an ultra-high-Q factor and diffraction-limited mode volume. Several silicon membrane photonic crystal nanocavities with Q-factors in the 1 million range have been realized, as evidenced by resonant scattering. The generality of these designs and their easy implementation and scalability make these results particularly interesting for realizing highly performing photonic nanocavities on different materials platforms and operational wavelengths.
A generalization of the Aubry-Andre-Harper (AAH) model is developed, containing a tunable phase shift between on-site and off-diagonal modulations. A localization transition can be induced by varying just this phase, keeping all other model parameter
We present a quantitative analysis of two-particle interaction effects in generalized, one-dimensional Aubry-Andre-Harper models with the Fermi energy placed in one of the band gaps. We investigate systems with periodic as well as open boundary condi
We report temporal and spectral domain observation of regenerative oscillation in monolithic silicon heterostructured photonic crystals cavities with high quality factor to mode volume ratios (Q/V). The results are interpreted by nonlinear coupled mo
Here we study the phase diagram of the Aubry-Andre-Harper model in the presence of strong interactions as the strength of the quasiperiodic potential is varied. Previous work has established the existence of many-body localized phase at large potenti
Systems of photonic crystal cavities coupled to quantum dots are a promising architecture for quantum networking and quantum simulators. The ability to independently tune the frequencies of laterally separated quantum dots is a crucial component of s
