The properties of the square array of coupled Microring Resonators (MRRs) with interstitial rings are studied. Dispersion behavior of the interstitial square coupled MRRs is obtained through the transfer matrix method with the Floquet-Bloch periodic condition. Analytical formulas of the eigen wave vectors, band gaps and eigen mode vectors are derived for the special cases of the interstitial square coupled MRRs array with identical couplers and the regular square coupled MRRs array without the interstitial rings. Then, the eigen modes field distribution are calculated for each of the four eigen wave vectors for a given frequency through the secular equation. Finally, numerical simulation is performed for an interstitial square coupled MRRs array with identical couplers and a regular square coupled MRRs array. The simulation result verifies the analytical analysis. Finally, the loaded quality factors of the interstitial 5-ring configuration, the regular 4-ring configuration and the 1-ring configuration are obtained. It is found that the loaded quality factor of the interstitial 5-ring configuration is up to 20 times and 8 times as high as those of the 1-ring configuration and the regular 4-ring configuration respectively, mainly due to the degenerated eigen modes at the resonant frequency. Thus, the interstitial square coupled MRRs array has the great potential to form high-quality integrated photonics components, including filters and resonance based sensing devices like the parity-time symmetric sensors.

The absence of the single-photon nonlinearity has been a major roadblock in developing quantum photonic circuits at optical frequencies. In this paper, we demonstrate a periodically-poled thin film lithium niobate microring resonator (PPLNMR) that re aches 5,000,000%/W second harmonic conversion efficiency---almost 20-fold enhancement over the state-of-the-art---by accessing its largest $chi^{(2)}$ tensor component $d_{33}$ via quasi-phase matching. The corresponding single photon coupling rate $g/2pi$ is estimated to be 1.2 MHz, which is an important milestone as it approaches the dissipation rate $kappa/2pi$ of best available lithium niobate microresonators developed in the community. Using a figure of merit defined as $g/kappa$, our devices reach a single photon nonlinearity approaching 1%. We show that, by further scaling of the device, it is possible to improve the single photon nonlinearity to a regime where photon-blockade effect can be manifested.
Future quantum networks in which superconducting quantum processors are connected via optical links, will require microwave-to-optical photon converters that preserve entanglement. A doubly-resonant electro-optic modulator (EOM) is a promising platfo rm to realize this conversion. Here, we present our progress towards building such a modulator by demonstrating the optically-resonant half of the device. We demonstrate high quality factor ring, disk and photonic crystal resonators using a hybrid silicon-on-lithium-niobate material system. Optical quality factors up to 730,000 are achieved, corresponding to propagation loss of 0.8 dB/cm. We also use the electro-optic effect to modulate the resonance frequency of a photonic crystal cavity, achieving a electro-optic modulation coefficient between 1 and 2 pm/V. In addition to quantum technology, we expect that our results will be useful both in traditional silicon photonics applications and in high-sensitivity acousto-optic devices.
We demonstrate ultra-high Q factor microring resonators close to the intrinsic material absorption limit on lithium niobate on insulator. The microrings are fabricated on pristine lithium niobate (LN) thin film wafer thinned from LN bulk via chemo-me chanical etching without ion slicing and ion etching. A record-high Q factor up to times ten to the power of 8th at the wavelength of 1550 nm is achieved because of the ultra-smooth interface of the microrings and the absence of ion induced lattice damage, indicating an ultra-low waveguide propagation loss of about 0.28 dB per meter. The ultra-high Q microrings will pave the way for integrated quantum light source, frequency comb generation, and nonlinear optical processes.
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.
Atomically thin 2D materials provide a wide range of basic building blocks with unique properties, making them ideal for heterogeneous integration with a mature chip platform. An understanding the role of excitons in transition metal dichalcogenides in Silicon photonic platform is a prerequisite for advances in optical communication technology, signal processing, and possibly computing. Here we demonstrate passive tunable coupling by integrating few layers of MoTe2 on a micro-ring resonator. We find a TMD-to-rings circumference coverage length ratio to place the ring into critical coupling to be about 10% as determined from the variation of spectral resonance visibility and loss as a function of TMD coverage. Using this TMD ring heterostructure, we further demonstrate a semi-empirical method to determine the index of an unknown TMD material (nMoTe2 of 4.36+.011i) near for telecommunication-relevant wavelength.
