We report on the realization of high-Q/V silicon photonic crystal cavities with resonance wavelengths in the telecom window around 1.55 µm. The cavity designs are based on an effective Aubry-Andrè-Harper bichromatic potential, defined by the superposition of two one-dimensional lattices with an incommensurate ratio between their periodicity constants. This peculiar confinement mechanism allows to...
Frequency conversion from the telecom range into the visible is demonstrated in suspended GaN slab photonic crystal (PhC) cavities through second harmonic generation (SHG) and third harmonic generation (THG), under continuous-wave resonant excitation. PhC cavities based on L3 and H0 designs are implemented with embedded injectors, the latter shown in Fig. 1a, enabling improved coupling to the fundamental...
We demonstrate four-wave mixing in an integrated structure made of porous silicon, namely a microring resonator with a quality factor of several thousand, and estimate the corresponding effective third-order nonlinear coefficient.
With unprecedented resolution we measure the joint spectral density of photon pairs that would be generated by spontaneous four-wave-mixing in a silicon ring resonator, and show how the quantum correlations can be tailored.
Silicon micro-ring resonators have been demonstrated to be potential “on- chip” efficient sources of time-energy entangled photons. In these devices, photon pairs are generated by spontaneous four-wave-mixing (SFWM), an elastic scattering event involving two pump photons that results in the generation of an idler and a signal photon. The mass production of such integrated devices for quantum optic...
