An ultrabroad absorber based on double-ring-shaped titanium nitride (TiN) nanoresonators, which can work in high temperatures, is proposed and numerically studied. The absorber with some optimal parameters exhibits an averaged absorption of 94.6% in the range of 200 - 4000 nm (from ultraviolet to mid-infrared) and a band from 200 - 3518 nm having an absorption > 90%. We have demonstrated in detail the physical mechanisms of the ultra-broad absorption, including the dielectric lossy property of TiN material itself in shorter wavelengths and plasmonic resonances caused by the metallic property of TiN nano-resonators in longer wavelengths. In addition, the absorber shows polarization independent and wide-angle acceptance. Another absorber with double TiN nano-rings of different heights has flatter and higher absorption efficiency (more than 95% absorption) at 200-2860 nm waveband. These properties make the proposed absorbers based on TiN has great potentials in many applications, such as light trapping, photovoltaics, thermal emitters.

High-harmonic generation is the cornerstone of nonlinear optics. It has been demonstrated in a wide range of crystalline systems including dielectrics, semiconductors, and semi-metals, as well as in gases, leaving metals out due to their low damage t
hreshold. Here, we report on the high-harmonic generation in metallic titanium nitride (TiN) films. TiN is a refractory plasmonic metal, known for its high melting temperature and laser damage threshold, with optical properties similar to those of gold. We show that TiN can withstand laser pulses with peak intensities as high as 13 TW/cm$^2$, one order of magnitude higher than gold, enabling the emission of intraband harmonics up to photon energies of 11 eV. These harmonics can pave the way for compact and efficient plasmonic devices producing vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) frequency combs. Through numerical calculations and experimental studies, we show that the intensity scaling and angular anisotropy of the emitted VUV radiation stem from the anisotropic conduction band structure of TiN, thus confirming its intraband origin.
Development of low-loss photonic components in the ultraviolet (UV) band will open new prospects for classical and quantum optics. Compared with other integrated platforms, aluminum nitride (AlN) is particularly attractive as it features an enormous
bandgap of ~6.2 eV and intrinsic chi(2) and chi(3) susceptibilities. In this work, we demonstrate a record quality factor of 2.1 x 105 (optical loss ~ 8 dB/cm) at 390 nm based on single-crystalline AlN microrings. The low-loss AlN UV waveguide represents a significant milestone toward UV photonic integrated circuits as it features full compatibility for future incorporation of AlGaN-based UV emitters and receivers. On-chip UV spectroscopy, nonlinear optics and quantum information processing can also be envisioned.
Long-lived, high-frequency phonons are valuable for applications ranging from optomechanics to emerging quantum systems. For scientific as well as technological impact, we seek high-performance oscillators that offer a path towards chip-scale integra
tion. Confocal bulk acoustic wave resonators have demonstrated an immense potential to support long-lived phonon modes in crystalline media at cryogenic temperatures. So far, these devices have been macroscopic with cm-scale dimensions. However, as we push these oscillators to high frequencies, we have an opportunity to radically reduce the footprint as a basis for classical and emerging quantum technologies. In this paper, we present novel design principles and simple fabrication techniques to create high performance chip-scale confocal bulk acoustic wave resonators in a wide array of crystalline materials. We tailor the acoustic modes of such resonators to efficiently couple to light, permitting us to perform a non-invasive laser-based phonon spectroscopy. Using this technique, we demonstrate an acoustic $Q$-factor of 28 million (6.5 million) for chip-scale resonators operating at 12.7 GHz (37.8 GHz) in crystalline $z$-cut quartz ($x$-cut silicon) at cryogenic temperatures.
We report on the optical characterization of an ultra-high diffraction efficiency grating in 1st order Littrow configuration. The apparatus used was an optical cavity built from the grating under investigation and an additional high reflection mirror
. Measurement of the cavity finesse provided precise information about the gratings diffraction efficiency and its optical loss. We measured a finesse of 1580 from which we deduced a diffraction efficiency of (99.635$pm$0.016)% and an overall optical loss due to scattering and absorption of just 0.185 %. Such high quality gratings, including the tool used for their characterization, might apply for future gravitational wave detectors. For example the demonstrated cavity itself presents an all-reflective, low-loss Fabry-Perot resonator that might replace conventional arm cavities in advanced high power Michelson interferometers.
We describe the measurement and modeling of amplitude noise and phase noise in ultra-high Q nanomechanical resonators made from stoichiometric silicon nitride. With quality factors exceeding 2 million, the resonators noise performance is studied with
high precision. We find that the amplitude noise can be well described by the thermomechanical model, however, the resonators exhibit sizable extra phase noise due to their intrinsic frequency fluctuations. We develop a method to extract the resonator frequency fluctuation of a driven resonator and obtain a noise spectrum with dependence, which could be attributed to defect motion with broadly distributed relaxation times.
