Influence of ionization and cumulative effects on laser-induced crystallization in multilayer dielectrics

Yves Bellouard, Victor Carle Adrien Boureau, Ruben Ricca

Crystallization of amorphous layers has been demonstrated under various radically different laser-exposure conditions, including continuous wave (cw) and pulsed lasers. Here, we investigate the specific role of ionization in the crystallization of dielectr ...

Soliton Generation in a Gallium Phosphide Photonic-Crystal Fabry-Perot Microresonator

Tobias Kippenberg, Nikolai Kuznetsov, Alisa Davydova, Miles Henry Anderson, Alberto Nardi

Ring resonators have proven to be extremely successful for generation of temporal dissipative Kerr solitons, but their dispersion engineering is limited. We present a photonic-crystal Fabry-Perot resonator with record-high quality factors in gallium phosph ...

Metasurface-stabilized optical microcavities

Ileana-Cristina Benea-Chelmus

Cavities concentrate light and enhance its interaction with matter. Confining to microscopic volumes is necessary for many applications but space constraints in such cavities limit the design freedom. Here we demonstrate stable optical microcavities by cou ...

Dielectric metasurfaces and their applications for optical biosensing

Yasaman Jahani

Over the past century, our understanding of life has been focused on its most fundamental building blocks: molecules. Biological molecules, such as proteins found in blood, other body fluids, or tissues, are excellent guides to identifying a normal or abno ...

Ultra low quantum decoherence nano-optomechanical systems

Mohammadjafar Bereyhi

Thermal motion of a room-temperature mechanical resonator typically dominates the quantum backaction of its position measurement. This is a longstanding barrier for exploring cavity optomechanics at room temperature. In order to enter the quantum regime of ...

Platicon microcomb generation using laser self-injection locking

Tobias Kippenberg, Rui Ning Wang, Junqiu Liu, Wenle Weng, Jijun He, Yang Liu, Miles Henry Anderson

The past decade has witnessed major advances in the development and system-level applications of photonic integrated microcombs, that are coherent, broadband optical frequency combs with repetition rates in the millimeter-wave to terahertz domain. Most of ...

Glass-in-glass infiltration for 3D micro-optical composite components

Andreas Mortensen, Yves Bellouard, Jérôme Faist, Gözden Torun, Enrico Casamenti, Luciano Borasi, Mathieu Bertrand

Chalcogenide glass exhibits a wide transmission window in the infrared range, a high refractive index, and nonlinear optical properties; however, due to its poor mechanical properties and low chemical and environmental stability, producing three-dimensiona ...

Ultra-narrow linewidth lasers and microcombs based on self-injection locking in integrated photonics (Invited)

Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu

Recent developments of self-injection locking of a DFB laser with an ultra-high Q resonator have enabled unprecedented low-noise performance of coherent light sources. We review the demonstration of ultra-narrow linewidth laser and microcombs in integrated ...
