• Abstract

  Nanophotonic devices have been explored as a compelling platform for all-optical quantum information and computational applications. In this work, we engineer group velocity dispersion with on-chip coupled microresonators to enable and optimize diverse optical nonlinear processes. In special, we harness degenerate optical parametric oscillation for quantum random number generation. (AU)

• Abstract

  This project focuses on studying third-order nonlinear processes occurring in optical microcavities. The main objective is to explore the generation of optical parametric oscillation, with a specific emphasis on degenerate, dual-pumped, parametric processes. We aim to explore the generation of non-degenerate optical parametric oscillation for the purpose of generating binary phase states.…

• Abstract

  The recent development of active and passive photonic components has revolutionized spectroscopy techniques, compact sources of light of high coherence, data transmission and even redened the optical computing paradigm. In this proposal we aim to optimize group velocity dispersion in non-linear optical processes to enable quantum random number generation using on-chip optical parametric o…

• Abstract

  Nanophotonic molecules explore the linear coupling of light between neighboring optical microresonators to control spectral properties and spatial light distribution. These devices have been extensively studied for optical signal processing, ranging from optical multicasting to nonlinear frequency conversion. More recently, research led by the Del'Haye group has demonstrated promising opp…
